No computer, no handphone, no TV, no football, not even newspapers.

Just books, notes and fullscap.

GG no RM!

Damn CT results. Damn predators. Damn EOYs.

I hate school.

Thank God it's Friday? Fuck it.

Five minutes to blog, finally.

The week-long holidays sucked. Nine days, minus three for camp, two for extra lessons, one for Bible Quiz (BQ) training and one for the actual BQ. Sounds like BBQ huh? Don't ask me why I joined, simply a waste of my precious time. And I'm not even a Christian.

This week nothing much happened. Pretty boring. Met Jack Neo, not the fake one, the real one, at Jurong Point yesterday after CIP (which was pretty fun too). I first saw him. He was wearing bright orange.

I saw him walking our way in the distance with a lady in black and I thought he looked like Jack Neo. Maybe his clone or long lost twin brother. Then when he got closer, I confirmed it was him. And I saw both Liang Dao Yans walk past each other. The fake Liang Dao Yan is Liang Zheng Yao, just FYI.

I told ChengWei and ZhengYao, but they didn't believe me. Then when we walked on a few more steps, a huge group of Dunno-Which Secondary School students walked past us and shouted: Liang Zhi Qiang leh!

It was then that they were convinced and went to take a second look. Both of them didn't want to take in down, on photo at that, but I would have if I had a camera phone.

So that's about what has been happening.

Tomorrow is the ideal day to pon school.

First - Biology, Yong Tau Foo: Bad enough.
Biology Class Test: Even worse.
Next - Chinese, Kam Yong Chuan: Bad enough too.
Chinese Class Test: Even, even worse.
Then - English Oral Examination after school: Worst.
Finally - Secondary Three talk for parents-cum-Parent-Teacher Conference: That's it, man!

As if we're all not stressed up enough, with the final year examinations just round the corner. All these shit is enough to get you all frussed up, but all in one day?!

F it. I hate school.

BB September Leadership-cum-CE Camp

2006-09-04T21:55:00.000+08:00

The term has just ended, and, what do you know, I'm off again, to camp. And for those who still don't know it, CE stands for Christianity Education. Dots.

Let me summarise it roughly for you. I want to keep this post short. Hopefully I can do that for just this once.

The camp was from Friday (6.40pm, 1 Sept 2006) to (11am, 3 Sept 2006). It was rather fun. At least to me. And for the Secondary 3 NCOs (appointment holders). Slack for us, tough for others.

Nothing much done on the first day. Daniel and I planned and carried out the night games for the whole company. KengThiam was praising us for the good job...

NCOs played late-night football for two hours while the others were asleep (or pretending to be in their crampy, stuffy classrooms), from around12.30am to 2.30am.

Felt super tired the next day. Went for 25km (actually meant to be 20km, but it turned out to be 25km for my team all thanks to NingYang's 'professional nagivational' skills) hike. From Nan Hua High to somewhere in Toh Tuck, to Little Guilin, to Woodlands, to Mandai. Ran much of the way. Overtook the team before us and nearly overtook the first team.

The destination, which was our campsite for the night was hell. Wild, uneven, thorny, bug-infested grass. Potholes. Sand. Toads. Giant red ants. No water, no lights. No pee area.

At least our team got a decent dinner, as we finished the hike first.

Next morning, another 8km to Upper Seletar Reservoir in two hours.

I'm now just damn shagged. Muscles aching everywhere. Bruises and cuts, which I don't know how I got, all over.

So, to summarise the summary, it will go something like this: 3days, 2 nights. Crappy campsite. 3 hours of football. 33km in 5 hours. 2 hours of sleep. Tired.

And now, I'll have to go to school for nearly everyday of the week. For lessons or workshops or for CCA. Just crap.

That's why I hate holidays too. It's just called holidays for show. Okay, I'll go rest now. Zzzzzz...

P.S. If you're wondering why this post came out only after so long, it's because I accidentally saved this as a draft instead of publishing it.

Botak

2006-08-30T20:29:00.000+08:00

Hello, you people would probably have noticed, I (along with ChengWei and ZhengYao) have gone BOTAK!

What prompted me to make that lame and stupid move?
Firstly, B. Lim. She caught me on Monday for having long hair and for having my ball not in a plastic bag (guess what happened to the ball next?). She told me to get my hair cut by the following day. Quite an unreasonable demand, considering she told me that at 5.45pm and most barbers close at around 6pm.

Secondly, because stylo.

Thirdly, I had always wanted to shave skinhead or botak. But since I'm not as daring as to shave skin, I went for the second best.

Fourthly, ZhengYao claimed that he would give me $5 if I really shave botak, such that every strand is shorter than 1cm. Notice he only claimed it. (Now I realise that even if he gives it to me, I still lose out. By $10. Because I shaved it, then went to trim it again for $7 as it looked to cock. Btw, Ginza Plaza Level 3 Raihan barber are scammers.)

Lastly, I was inspired. By the posters on my bedroom wall.
Inspiration #1:

Andridy Shevchenko

Inspiration #2:

Notice the botaks (circled in red) like Podolski. The ones circled in blue are skinheads.

Why do football players like to have little or no hair? Why can't they all be like Ronaldinho?

LOLs. Now I look like a mix of Zhong Guo Bo Da, Houxu, Chow Yun Fatt, Shevchenko, Brock Lesnar, The Rock and the old me. Also known as a RETARD. LOL.

And the three of us look like San Ge Hao Ren!

Go ahead, laugh.

Today I was on my way home back from school when it started to rain. I was stranded at the bus-stop near my house. LOL.

Here's how the sky looked when I left the school.

Mai siao siao, flash on hor!

Here's one with the flash off.

Thank god for the sheltered pathway all the way across the over-head bridge to the bus-stop.

NUS High School of Maths and Science are really rich, man. Well, but thank god for their shelter.

Oh, and I took a fairly interesting video after BQ. Check it out. It's not very clear on YouTube, but the original's obviously much clearer.

Also, if you want to know more on the interesting stuff we do, go to ChengWei's blog too. Link's in my sidebar.

Okay, I'm pretty tired now, so I'll stop here. Kam, Liu, Yong... Enough said.

How does it feel?

2006-08-24T16:22:00.000+08:00

Woots~! I can hardly believe it myself. After failing four out of six subjects, I actually got 25/30 for English, when 16 out of 38 in my class failed. KNN, that's the highest among all the classes that Joy Koh teaches.

I got full marks for the first section. I got four out of five vocab questions WRONG. And I got 14/15 for my summary.

Unbelievable huh?

LOL... Wanna know the secret on how to score well for English? Draw the Nike swoosh logo on your exam paper. I did. So did ChengWei. He got 22/30. He got less 'cos he did not colour the swoosh and write 'JUST DO IT'.

I'm happy, yes, but not that extremely elated about it all. 'Cos one good pass doesn't change the fact that I did horribly for this Common Test.

And I'm pretty stressed out by lots of stuff, from Maths homework (why has Mr Liu become so crazy) to other stuff like meeting up with an old man.

Anyways, since I'm in a pretty good mood today, I'll share some photos with you.
Photos from my trip in London last year. Enjoy.

The Big Ben (da ben zhong, lol)

Beautiful scenary of sunset and lake. And BIRDS!! Lol... Bird Tong Chai. Kena bird flu then know...

Fog in the distance.

Oh, and I found some more pictures we took when there. Pictures of 'houses'!

Haha, hope you enjoyed all the photos. So sad now so difficult and dangerous to go there with all the terrorist stuff and all...

Oh, and Chelsea lost, AGAIN. This time to Mee Rebus-Marlboro-Whatever-their-club-name-is. Haha. And Man U is on a winning spree. Dominating!

Okay, until the next time, good day/night/morning/noon/afternoon/evening/luck/bye*.

Post number 50! (Never thought I'd ever reach even half a hundred)

2006-08-23T21:11:00.000+08:00

LOL... Saw this on the news on TV recently:

The war between teens and authority figures has a new -- or old -- front: ears. British shopkeepers tired of teenage loiterers have turned to the Mosquito teen repellent, which emits a high-pitch frequency that most teenagers can hear -- but not most adults.

But now teens have struck back against the Mosquito: They are using the same sound to communicate without adults' knowledge.

At issue is a text-message ringtone that emits the same pitch as the Mosquito. Using it, students can learn about a new message while they're in class -- where they're not supposed to be using their cellphones. Most of their teachers can't hear the alert.

Inventor Howard Stapleton, creator of the Mosquito teen repellent, says only a few people over age 30 can hear the Mosquito's sound. He and his 16-year-old daughter Isabel talk to Melissa Block about the sound, which has been dubbed "Teen Buzz."

According to the report, many teenagers are downloading that high-frequency Mosquito Ringtone. It's supposed to be so that youngsters like most of you and me can here it, but most adults over 25 years of age can't.

Cool huh?

Oh, and I finally managed to get hold of my own photo of my mohawk.

There. I used up a quarter of my wax on that. Enough wax to keep it from being flattened back down, but not enough to keep it standing up properly either. Just to let you have a rough idea of the amount of wax I used, I had to shampoo and wash my hair three times before all of it was totally gotten rid off. LOL.

I just remembered, I forgot to post about this in my previous post. Mathilda got ousted from singapore Idol! WTF... This is so not a singing competition anymore. I mean, how can??? Are the people deaf (cos they can't hear that her singing's way better than all the other contestants added up), blind (maybe they took down the wrong number to SMS or call) or have no brains (cos they just stupidly voted her out, when Joakim's still in)? Nothing against Joakim, he's real sporty, and has personality, but to be frank, he can't sing well. Most of you should know that too.

Oh, and supposedly, the blue-tied people in our school will be looking for me soon. About the petition. And the petition will most likely be handed over to Mrs B. Lim.

Let me say this first. The NHHS student council is supposed to help the students with our problems. It's called student wellfare. And especially if our problem involves hundreds of dollars. So if I tell them about my, I'm sorry, I meant our, problems, and they get us to even deeper shit, then they all suck and should be shot in the head.

And yes, I am having some problems with certain few people who are tens of years older than me who act like they care and constantly bother me. Who act like they are my fatheror something when they're NOT. Bastards.

And now, I have something against basketball too. Because the basketball players are starting to act like softball players. Fuck you, it's not that I don't dare beat you or kick your basketball over the fence when it rolled over to the volleyball court. I believe you will get your retribution. No need for me to have revenge and get into more shit.

I just feel more and more hatred in me, and believe me, I wasn't like this before. I was born normal and cheery. But in the world we're in, everyone's bound to hate. For example, in a world where cheap bastards steal anything from your handphone and iPod, to stationary, to even $0.90, you're bound to hate the people around you. In a world where you're singled out and oppressed, and not given the rights to freedom of speach, for eight hours everyday, you're bound to hate.

Hoo~ Shen hu xi...

Okay, something lighter now.

FOOTBALL WEEKLY Issue 219 (16 AUG 06 - 22 AUG 06):
Why is the No. 10 jersey held in such high regard?

Unlike nowadays when numbers like 16, 24, and even 42 are commonplace on players' jerseys, in the past squad numbers were assigned strictly according to the player's position on the field.
For example, the fullbacks donned No.2 (right back) and No.3 (left back) shirts; with central defenders wearing numbers 4 and 5. The right-winger wore No.7 while the left-sided midfielder had the No.11 shirt with the two central midfielders wearing No.6 and 8.
The No.10 was worn by the main striker (his partner wore No.9) or the main attacking playmaker, hence the importance.
Furthermore, over the years players like Pele, Eusebio, Michel Platini and Diego Maradonna elevated the No.10 shirt to cult status with their genius.

I think maybe they forgot Ronaldinho and Jerry Ang. LOL. ChengWei's No.9, just for your information.

Okay, I'll stop here for now.

A Harmless Blog Post

2006-08-22T19:20:00.000+08:00

Okay, so the Common Tests are finally over. But, hey, what's there to rejoice about? As I will put it, the end of one shit marks the start of other shit.

Now, after the Common Tests, are the Common Tests RESULTS. And it won't be long before all our parents know our bad grades, and freedom's gone again.

Meanwhile, more shit has already started. You would, and should, be thinking that now after the Commons Tests, I would be relaxing and enjoying. Unfortunately, no, that is NOT the case. I'll have to complete Skill Practice 6A, 6B and 6C for A Math, one bao zhang bao dao for Chinese, AND write some assfuck bullcrap apology letters to all the teachers who teach our class (for talking during their lessons, when half the class also is and with the other half sleeping). All by tomorrow.

So fucking sian... Life's just heading downhill.

My Common Tests grades? I failed three out of five papers that have been returned.

I passed E Math and Biology with 19/35 and 30/50 respectively.

I failed A Math by one and a half marks (that fucking sucks man). Failed Chemistry by also one and a half marks (ARGHH!!). And failed Social Studies (gasp!) by half a mark (*bang* bullet through brain).

I had expected to fail A Math and Chemistry, but if I had failed by something like five marks, I would at least feel... More fu qi. One and a half marks!! And I had left the last page of my A Math (worth 13 marks) undone, and the last five pages of my Chemistry (worth 15 marks) undone too. If I had more time, say five minutes more for each paper, I would have passed both!

I'm most pissed by the A Math paper. Our dear Mr Kam Yong Chuan (a.k.a. Gan Ni Nah) started the paper at 7.50am, the moment he stepped into the class. He wrote the time on the whiteboard even before the students could all bring their bags out and their stationary in. Then he issued us the papers. By the time everyone got their papers, 5 minutes out of the 60 minutes for the paper had been wasted. Then during the test, he went around calling people to tuck their shirts in, and even took away their calculators until he was satisfied with the state of condition of our uniforms. Lucky for me, my shirt was tucked in, but with his pausing by your table, tugging at the end your shirt to check if it was tucked in, and looking over and casting his shadow across your table while you do your work is also damned distracting. Then he gives everyone that sadistic ticko smile.

Teachers like him and Yong deserves a big slap right across their bitch faces. Make that two.

For Social Studies, I was sure I should at least pass. That was one paper I was quite confident of. I wrote lots of stuff and even stating Switzerland's example of a citizen's army and stuff. Damn, those who wrote all the shit about diplomacy when the question asked about the most important DETERRENT even passed!

Now out of the subjects that remain to be returned, I can only be sure of a pass for Physics.

Arrghhh!!! Don't even feel like thinking about Common Tests now.

Let's talk about something else, say the happenings at school in the past week.

We did a professional "movie trailer" titled The Restroom. It looks damn cool but also damn retarded at the same time. Entirely filmed and editted on handphone in our school's fourth floor gents beside the science laboratories. Directed by Liang Dao Yan (Liang Zheng Yao). LOL.

KengThiam tried asking me to church again. You can pretty much guess my reply.

By the way, all this while, no one was out of BB. 'Cause you'll have to fill in a CCA quitting form before you are officially out of the BB. In other words, those who are "no longer in BB" are actually so because KengThiam don't want them in, and are not really no longer in BB.

So there's a parade tomorrow and everyone's to turn up. Attire's only BB Polo Tee and PT shorts.

We had been playing football with 301 for the past week. Yesterday, we played against them again. We (all non-301 dudes, including Kel and gang who never passes) were down by two goals. Both were own goals, in other words they were incapable of scoring one at all.

I kept running up and down, assisting and supporting Marcus and ZT. At least Marcus passes, unlike certain people who won't even pass when they get themselves stuck in a situation where they are cornered by three to four people.

Finally I scored a goal for our side. ZT was dribbling, and kept dribbling, despite being tackled by three of their defenders. He didn't want to pass to me when I was unmarked, right in front of the goalpost. Then he lost the ball. Then ZT started shouting at me to get the ball, like I was the one who lost possesion of it. I had to run for the ball and take a shot, before Aaron beat me to it.

I took the shot, it rebounded off Aaron's knee, and I quickly raised my leg higher to hit it back. And by a stroke of luck, I scored.

Then Jasper started to KPKB. Saying how tyco it is and stuff. Hey, shut your bitch mouth man. I scored, tyco or not, you didn't. And if ZT had passed the ball to me say three seconds earlier, I would have a clear shot and scored likewise.

I must admit I should have scored one earlier, but wasted the opportunity. Because I did not know which box in the fence was their goal, so when a cross by Marcus came my way, I grounded it, and not wanting to waste the opportunity by scoring the wrong box, passed it to Kel. And he did not score. We both were just less than two metres away from the goal.

Then Kel dribble the ball all the way up the left flank later in the game, amazingly without losing possesion of the ball. It was our chance of equalising. Both ChengWei and I were standing right in front of the goal, waiting if he ever decided to pass. When LiXuan went out of his goal area to tackle Kel, he passed the ball to me. But ChengWei, not wanting me to score a double, decided to steal my kill. He ran up and intercepted the ball before it reached me and kicked it. LOL, and it went to high. NICE MISS MAN! Dang, come to think of it, I could have scored a hat-trick.

Then Kel started swearing and pushed my head in frustration after the game. Fuck, it also wasn't me who missed that shot. I'm not blaming ChengWei here, it's only a game. I'm just pissed off by the fact that everyone thinks that they're so good when they scored nothing, and start being stuck up and scolding and swearing at others. Who in this case, actually score.

Today, it was 302 (Kel and gang as usual) against the rest. It was a draw, 1-1 (amazing considering the fact that ZhengYao kept trying to score own goals). As usual, they scored nothing. They led us by one goal due to an own goal by YanWei. ChengWei scored the equaliser, which made up for the blunder he made yesterday.

Moral of the story: If you think you're so high up, and start to get proud and complacent, you DETIORORATE. You will not improve, while others do.

So now even football is starting to suck, and we are also not able to play after school. EVERYTHING ABOUT SCHOOL SEEM TO SUCK MORE AND MORE.

Oh, and check out MrBrown's latest podcast. Mee Siam, mai ham.

LOL... I'm obsessed with moonwalks and dancing slide moves.
Cool man. So lame. Whatever.

Michael Jackson's concert. Observe the moonwalk.

Now try learning it yourself with the help of this video.

Even if you don't learn it, you're bound to be inspired by the videos.

Okay, I'll have to end here for now.

Common Tests Week 1

2006-08-17T15:28:00.000+08:00

Alright, I can't take it anymore. I need a break.

All this revision for the Common Tests is driving me nuts!

I totally screwed both of the papers today. Maths was fucking easy, but I had not enough time to complete the second last question and I left the entire last question blank. For Geography, it was the same case. I simply had not enough time.

Then for the whole day it was fucking sian and I got into a little trouble with Donald Duck (a.k.a. Mdm Yong Tau Foo Delights).

The previous papers were English, Chemistry and Social Studies.
English was alright, if not a little easy.
Chemistry was copable, though I also could not finish the last four or five pages. So I ended up doing like 28 marks worth of questions out of 50 marks. Good game...
Social Studies was alright, and I think I should pass with slightly higher than just a boderline one, say maybe 8/13?

Tomorrow will be the killer papers. A Math and Biology.

What the hell is Linear Law? How do you write all those Sets with squiggly lines and weird 'R's and 'N's and 'Z's?

For Biology, I don't even know what chapters are being tested. I don't really think that Donald Duck has been teaching anything. Miss, I mean Mdm, Loke was way better. I was the top student for Biology in Sec 1 and in the first semester of this year becasue of her (and also I clever lah).

So tomorrow, I can be mentally prepared for two red underlined marks.

And so, the failing spree has begun...

...

So what's been up lately, besides all the Common Tests shit? Hmm...

Houxu the Frog died. He died on Friday, 11 August. We found him partially submerged, with his head in the water and all four limbs wide open, floating on the surface of the shallow water in our tank. It's death has been classified as unnatural, and there are could be many causes for its death.
Here are some possible causes:
Starvation.
Food poisoning from eating too much of its own shit that Joel fed.
Eating too much millipedes.
Eating an earthworm and a bee.
Eating fish food when it is a frog.
Killed by other two frogs.

I have loads of stuff that I see that I want to share, like the decomposted Houxu that has now been reduced to a pile of black stuff and bones, but unfortunately, I do not have a camera wherever I go. In fact, I do not even have a camera.

Take today for example. I had my hair styled mohawk after school and used up a quarter of my Gatsby Wax doing so. And I couldn't even take a photo of my completed work. ChengWei had his hair in 'hurricane style' and YewHung also tried a mohawk, but his hair was short and it ended up more like Beckham style. They all took lots of photos of their hair, and of each other's, and mine too. So now, they have the photo of my mohawk, and not me.

And ZhengYao's going to send it to everyone on the train who have their Bluetooth on. Like he did the day before when I styled my hair mohawk with water just for fun.

(Later, I walked to the bus-stop with JingXuan and YewHung with my mohawk still on, but it wasn't so weird. But after they left, I was alone, and I decided to flatten my hair back down, or look like a mental case and get lots of stares. Or worse still, risk letting a member of the public take a photo of me in my school uniform and sending it to Mrs B. Lim or Mr Foo. However, I tried to flatten my hair back down to no avail. So I still ended up looking like a retarded monkey with overgrown hair on a bad hair day.

When I got on my bus I realised that Sarah on the same bus too, and she must have taught how retarded I am. That seriously sucks.)

I should get a phone. A proper one, not some lousy Nokia 8210 which constantly hangs. I want one that has colour. I want one that can play polyphonic ring tones and music. I want one that has a camera. I want one that can take videos. I want one that can store MP3 music. I want one that has Bluetooth. I want one that I can play games like FIFA Street on.

Unfortunately, I do not have the cash, and my parents won't buy me one. Not only after two years, when my contract is up will I get a new phone. A phone that costs $0 when I subscrobe for a new plan.

If only I had a million bucks......

Lol... Anyway, for the past week, we had been constantly harrassing who else but our lovely OSO (whatever that means) Chua Kim Sang (a.k.a Yi Hou & Cai Xian Sheng). He had been watering the plants right under our block during the end of our recess. No, let me correct that. He had been playing with water with his gun-like water spray and hose, spraying at the floor, the wooden bench there, and the red car parked there everyday.

We would start shouting his name, and shouting for him not to waste the school's resources. And also for him to stop spraying at that poor red Nissan March. When he looked over, we would run away. Damn, if I had a camera video phone I would have taken everything down.

Once, YewHung even detached the hose from the water tap and poor Mr Chua was so puzzled with why his water supply was suddenly cut off. He started examining his gun-like water spray and, oh! you should have seen the expression on his face!

And yesterday, during the free enrichment periods, we stalked him and took photos of him. Then we went from class to class, standing outside the classrooms, sending his photos to whoever who had their Bluetooth on. LOL!

On Monday, we had a long talk with Mr Aurelius Yeo after school... You can roughly guess the content. The following day, KengThiam sent me some shit SMS which went like:
For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand, and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.
Isiah 41:13

Does he think I need help? LOL... HE needs help.

And for the past few days, ChengWei and WeiCong had been downloading lame songs such as 把钱还给我吧, the 西关大少 theme song, Barney and Friends and a Hokkien Speeding song. And in case you don't know yet, Mr Dai is officially 西关大少 (no points for guessing why).

Oh, crap, I think I'm getting too engrossed with blogging, just look at how long this post is now... Better go back to study now. Before my parents return.

Best goal ever...

2006-08-06T13:20:00.000+08:00

Hello again.

I've been rather busy, or at least busy enough to keep me from blogging as regularly. But I'm back, for just this once, to just share some stuff.

Check out this goal. Hilarious.

There are many more of such videos on stupid goals you can find on YouTube.

So you can keep yourself busy on the net even if I stop blogging for two weeks or so. That's because I don't think I will have the opportunity to do so anymore, and I guess that's good for me too, since the exams are - what - a week away.

You can also check out The MrBrown Show at Brown Town (link's in my sidebar) and the other links by my sidebar too.

By the way, the frogs haven't eaten anything for the past six days. They're gonna die soon. Two of them may very well be cannibalising on the third one. Very soon they'll all look like that:

KengThiam tried, once again, to get me to go to church yesterday. Here's how the SMS conversation went:

KT: Can you come for church service tmw? [Even if I can, I won't.]
Me: I'm not sure. I don't think so. I need to study for exams and my prents want me to stay at home. I'll see.
KT: Okay. Do come. When u walk in faith, u will be blessed. [Trying to psyche me into going.]

Then the very next morning...
KT: Can u make it 4 service later? Mt at expo hall 9 at 1315, can? [See how adament he is. I already told him I couldn't.]
Me: No, I need to stay at home, my parents will be home.
KT: Okay. Next time then. God bless! [Wow... He never gives up, does he?]

No wonder ChengWei wrote this in his latest post on his blog:

" ... Otherwise, you're probably psychoed by your friend or officers or teachers or anyone, until you give in. I've got a few friends like that, too embarrassed to say no when certain people try to get them to go church. IMO, if they don't want to go anywhere with "certain people" they should learn initiative and say to them:

" "FUCK OFF!" ".

The few friends he's referring to was obviously me.

The coming week will be a thoroughly slack week. Tuesday's a half-school day, and there's no school on Wednesday and Thursday. Do I 'LURB SG' or what?

Any plans for the week? Please include me if there're any, because I'll be bored to death at home. But obviously I'll have to do quite a bit of revision and catching up with homework. >.<

Sigh... I just realised how much I miss my iPod. Life without music is TORTURE! My hatred for that thieving bastard just came back suddenly... I'll kill him, get my iPod back, and sell his blood to buy another paper one to burn at his funeral, since he loves my iPod so much.

Oh, and by the way, I watched Anger Management last night, and it was a killer! It's damn LAME.

Okay, to everybody out there, enjoy your week ahead, and to Singapore, Happy Birthday!

Oh, and to Daniel too, today's his birthday.

If tomorrow never comes...

Follow the 'Five-day Work Week' policy - FULLY

In the year 2004, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong initiated the five-day work week policy in his National Day Rally Speach.

The policy was such that work should be done between Monday to Friday, and the weekend would be free for people to spend with their families and relax. This way, working parents and children will be able to spend more family time together and unwind from stress at work or school.

By the start of year 2005, most schools had adopted this policy.

Nan Hua Secondary School was one such schools. However, like many other schools, it did not follow the scheme fully.

This resulted in many problems, for students, teachers and parents.

For students, it meant that more work will be given on weekdays, and all CCAs (Co-Curricular Activities), project work meetings, remedial and supplementary classes would also be carried out during weekdays. This causes students to be very stressed during the weekdays.

And since the CCA activities are carried out on weekdays, most students will return home late on CCA days and will have to rush and stay up late to complete their homework.

Just take my CCA as an example. We have Boys' Brigade parades on every Tuesday. The parades usually do not end till 6.30 to 7pm. By the time we return home, it's already around 8pm. We take a shower, have our dinner, and it's already nearly time for bed!

To add on to the problems, there is no common CCA day where all CCA activities/meetings are carried out in Nan Hua High School, thus teachers are unable to not give homework on CCA days.

On weekends, most students will have their tuition lessons, piano/swimming/dancing/etc. lessons as they are no longer free on weekdays.

Also, CCAs such as the Boys' Brigade still carry out activities on weekends. Activities such as kyaking, musketry, home visits and our enrolment service.

Moreover, many students are also involved in the NDP practices and rehearsals over the weekends. Thus, most of us are also not free over the weekends.

What's more is that teachers still give homework to be done over the weekends. And more homework at that. They figure that since we have no school activities over the weekends, we have more time to do our homework.

So we have increased workload on weekdays and weekends, two CCA activities on some weeks, weekdays filled with school activites, and weekends filled with extra non-curricular activities.
This causes us to be equally stressed on weekends as on weekdays.

So we are more stressed on BOTH weekdays, AND weekends, and this results in even lesser time to be spent with our families or to relax.

The 'Five-day work week' policy has thus lost its purpose.

I am not criticising the policy or trying to encourage cynicism and despondency of any sorts. In fact, I personally think that the policy is quite workable and will be good, BUT ONLY IF FOLLOWED FULLY.

I would thus like to provide some alternatives and solutions.

Firstly, FOLLOW THE 'FIVE-DAY WORK WEEK' POLICY FULLY, and not give homework over the weekends.

Secondly, FOLLOW THE 'FIVE-DAY WORK WEEK' POLICY FULLY, and not conduct any school or CCA activities over the weekends.

Thirdly, FOLLOW THE 'FIVE-DAY WORK WEEK' POLICY FULLY, and give us time to relax and spend with our families. All activities carried out during weekdays after school should not be until over 5.30pm.

Lastly, there should be a Common CCA Day every week, such that all CCAs are conducted on that day, and no homework should be given.

If Nan Hua High School (and other schools alike) would like students, teachers and parents to be less stressed and lack of sleep, and to excel in their academic performance and enjoy going school even more, I strongly suggest that it adopts the above alternatives and solutions.

Let me stress that all the above suggestions, with exception of the last one, are not from me, but rather, they were part of the actual 'Five-day work week' policy proposal made in the speach by PM Lee Hsien Loong on the 12 August 2004.

All in favour of what I've written, say 'Aye'.

"Aye!"

Petition Letter to School

2006-07-23T22:26:00.000+08:00

Okay people, with help from ChengWei, here's the finalised version of the petition letter we've produced to send to the school. The content below is exactly what is in the actual letter.

I figured some people may not be seeing me in person or get to see the actual letter, so they can read it here.

Also, people can view it here first before signing derectly onto the actual letter. This way, it saves a lot of time, as other people who want to sign the petition will not have to wait as a person hogs it for 10 or so minutes reading.

So here it is; and yes, all vulgarities are removed and the letter has been considerably toned down.

To: Whichever school authorities concerned.
Subject: Petition Letter to the School

The NHHS Ball Fetish

We, a group of Secondary Three students from Nan Hua High School, have just become $120 poorer, all thanks to our school. It is interesting how vague the rules concerning soccer play is, and the teachers are allowed to interpret the rules their own way, which creates many situations where the students feel unfair that their balls are being confiscated.

On Thursday (13/07/2006), we were playing football after school. There was a full-field match between the Secondary Two students in the field and the volleyball court was occupied, so we had to play in the basketball court. There is a lack of sports facilities in our school, and so we had to make do with what we had. Any other areas are ‘non-designated playing areas’, and playing there would be an offence.

Playing football at the basketball court, we were constantly the targets of verbal assaults from the basketball players as we were ‘disrupting their games’. So when the ball went in the direction of a group of lower secondary basketball players, we tried to kick it away from them, so as not to disrupt them. However, the ball went a little too high and it landed on the second floor corridor outside the hall.

Two of us went up to retrieve the ball, and when we reached the second floor, we were just in time to see Mr. Fonseka pick up the ball and stroll into the hall. We went after him, meaning to ask for the ball back, but we saw that there was a Secondary Four Oral examination or practice of some sort going on, and Mr. Fonseka was teacher in charge of examining a student. So we waited for the student’s turn to end before approaching him.

When the student was done, he did not even want to talk to us or hear us out. He just gestured for the next student to come forth. So we waited for this next student to be tested before we tried to approach him once more.

After waiting for another 15 minutes, the student had finally completed his oral examination. We wanted to try to ask Mr. Fonseka for the ball back once more, but once again, he did not give us a chance to, and simply called for the next student in line to be tested.

This particular student, however, had noticed us standing outside the hall and told Mr. Fonseka that we had been waiting to speak to him.

At this point, most would probably think that he would come over to us, tell us not to kick the ball up anymore, and return us the ball. Or at least he would tell us off and keep the ball for himself anyway.

But no, that was not the case. He simply told the student to ignore us, be seated, and to proceed on.

By now, all five of us were there at the corridor. After waiting for nearly half an hour without doing anything standing outside the hall, all that we achieved was… the successful passing of time and being blatantly ignored! So we had no choice but to leave.

I am not just writing to complain about the confiscation of the ball, but also to question the unreasonable basis of confiscation of the ball, and the type of attitude we were given.

We thought that maybe because Mr. Fonseka really had to examine the students, thus he did not want to come out of the hall to talk to us.

However, a few days later, we tried to look for him to retrieve our ball and explain to him but he was talking to a bunch of NCC girls. So we waited. Again. For 10 whole minutes. When he finally finished talking to them, he immediately went into the staffroom before we had a chance to talk to him. Afterwards, a teacher sent by him came out to tell us to go back to our classes and look for him after school.

After we spent like half our lunch waiting for him, he asked us to look for him after school! And later, after school, we went to look for him, and – what do you know- he was not in the staff room.

Any third party persons would find it rather obvious that he is avoiding us and meaning to keep the ball for himself. However, we shall give him the benefit of the doubt, that he is indeed a very, very busy man, and whenever we find him to have our ball back, he is not free. The blame shall be placed on our terribly bad luck instead.

Here are the reasons why we are furious:

1. It was an ACCIDENT. We are fully prepared to apologize for the mild disturbance we caused. However, he did not even give us the chance to.

2. The ball did not even enter the hall. How much disturbance can that cause?

3. Which do you find more distracting:
i.) A ball that lands on the corridor outside an examination hall for 20 seconds before two students brings it back down; or
ii.) A ball that lands on the corridor outside an examination hall for 20 seconds before the examiner stands up, go get it, return, and proceed with the rest of the examination, with the ball between his legs under the examination table, with five students waiting outside the hall?
I would definitely think the latter, but apparently Mr. Fonseka thinks otherwise.

4. Nobody even informed us of the examination or warned us of playing in the courts downstairs. Hardly any of us was even aware that there was an exam that day.

5. He blatantly ignored us for two times and seems to be avoiding us now.

6. Time is precious, life is short. Time is also money. And we had wasted about 40 minutes of our lives, achieving nothing but being ignored. I do not see the humour in that at all.

Now, just 17 hours after that incident, our class was supposed to have PE lesson. Our PE teacher had previously told us to go to the hall for PE that lesson. So we went there, bringing another new football along, because it was PE lesson, and after it was recess.

However, after waiting for 10 minutes for the teacher, she still did not arrive, so we decided to play football. We could not go to the field as it had rained earlier and it was half-flooded, half-muddy. Neither could we go to the courts as the lower secondary students were having recess and they had occupied all the courts. Also, we figured that since the teacher had instructed for us to go to the hall, it was only right to stay around the premises. So we played there, outside the hall.

We reckoned it was okay to engage in some sports activity like football during PE lesson. So we juggled the football there, outside the hall.

So there we were playing, and then came our OM Mr. Ng. He came, he saw, he took. Not a chance for explanation. Come on; is playing football during PE lesson where the teacher instructed us to go to an offence?

If the school expected us to sit quietly in one corner, doing nothing and wait, we might as well not come to school and stay at home instead.

In previous times, when there was basketball practice and softball practice, Mr. Edmund Ng would allow us to play in the parade square, just as long as we do not kick the ball too hard and smash the windows. And we did not. However, this time we were just playing at the area outside the hall. Even if we wanted to break some glass for the fun of it, there wasn’t any in the surrounding area! Unless Mr. Ng was afraid we would kick too hard and smash the concrete, there is really no reason for him to confiscate our ball.

Furthermore, there was another PE class playing volleyball inside the hall. He just walked in and told the teacher to get the students to go somewhere else to play, and they went downstairs to the parade square. I personally wonder why he didn’t try to confiscate the dozens of balls flying around since he loved doing that so much. In fact, there is more risk of breaking something inside the hall.

So, there was another ball gone, and $35 with it.

After school that day, we went to play football again, but as usual, both the football field and volleyball court were occupied. The softball girls were having a match and were using the field as their pitch, and the Secondary Four students were playing at the court.

So we were forced to share and play with some Secondary One students who were also left to play football at the basketball court.

There we were playing and then while playing, one of us accidentally kicked the ball over the fence into the field. The next thing we knew, the softball people had taken our ball and did not want to return it back.

Just in 24 hours, we have lost three footballs summing up to $120. If I were capable of earning $120 a day, I wouldn’t be studying here already.

The softball team and its teachers-in-charge are often unreasonable as a whole. Is it that disturbing when just a soccer ball or two drop into the field? Even if it does not even hit them and land so far away that it definitely would not be of much disturbance to them? Isn’t it simple courtesy for the softballers who are not playing to throw the ball back to us? We do pass them their softballs back when they roll our way, so it does not make sense when our ball roll over and they do not return us back.

We do apologize when our ball goes their way, but the teacher in charge never returns them. If this is how culture and courtesy is in Nan Hua, in future we will just throw the softballs that roll our way even further away from the softballers. And do not blame us when that happens, as we are very kind already. They confiscate our balls; we just make their balls further away for them to pick. Every time their softballs come our way, we gladly return them back. Now once in while our footballs go over to them, we never get to see them again.

Anyway, that field is meant to be a football field, not a softball pitch. I mean, would there be football goal posts in a softball pitch? We are already understanding enough to share it with them and let them draw funny lines all across the field. But it really crosses the line when a football is no longer allowed in a football field. That is utterly outrageous.

Because of these incidents, most of the football playing students in this school hates the Hurricanes. And nary has a clap resounded from them when the Hurricanes win a rare trophy, and instead there are jeers.

Just on Tuesday (18/7/2006), another two balls were confiscated, an adidas StarFinder and an adidas StarGlider, amounting $100.

After school, we went to play football. And the softball team was once again having another match. We were as careful as ever this time not to kick the football over the fence, and everyone present was told that whoever kicks the ball over will have to pay. Then he can have his revenge on the teachers-in-charge after that for all I care.

Then at around 5pm, a Secondary Two student accidentally kicked the ball over the fence, into the football field.

The softball match had already ended, and the girls were shouting “Three cheers, and three cheers, and three cheers for…” Moreover, the ball had landed way off the area which they use as a pitch. It landed at the side of the field, by the fence, even outside the football out line.

It was in no way of any disturbance to their already ended game.

But it was confiscated nonetheless.

The other ball that was confiscated belonged to a friend of ours from class 301. It was also confiscated by the Hurricanes when kicked over the fence into field, even though it was not disrupting the match as it had landed far away from them. This goes to show how unreasonable the softball people are.

These are not the first, and definitely will not be the last, incidents the softball people had taken our balls away from us. The softball tournament season earlier this year had seen three balls, just from our class alone, being confiscated.

If this is to carry on, the next time one of their softballs roll over, we are going to collect them and sell them to buy new soccer balls.

I would now like to bring you back two years. The very first ball I ever brought to Nan Hua was confiscated by Mrs. Lim just two weeks after I bought it. I was coming back from recess to my class, with the ball in my hands and it was just taken from me. Because it was not in a plastic bag or net. I did not even bounce or roll or kick it.

The rule should be corrected such that the ball will be confiscated if it is found rolling or bouncing or being kicked outside designated play areas. Having a plastic bag or net to store it should be just a precautionary measure the student can take to prevent the likelihood of the ball being played and then confiscated.

Anyway, not everyone can afford to spend their money on something as unnecessary as a ball net, and also, isn’t there a campaign against the use of plastic bags currently going on in Singapore?

At least, if the school confiscates our balls, they should put them in the PE room for the rest of the school to use. Instead, the balls are put under the teachers’ tables while the students are made to use cheap 3-for-$10 balls bought from pasar malams.

We are not even complaining that the field is in such poor condition that when it rains, you can see it is a swamp inside the field from the fifth level of the school building.

No one in this school wears studs or field soccer boots inside the field, so it cannot be blamed on us that the field is in such poor condition. The field is like this because of poor maintenance and draining. The middle of the field is practically a swamp.

There is a lack of sports facilities in this school. There is only one tiny volleyball court and a poorly maintained field for us to use. At a modest estimate, around 300-400 pupils in this school play football, and there is usually only the volleyball court available to be played on.

I would thus like to make a few suggestions and alternative solutions.

Firstly, return us back all our footballs. Most of them are wrongly confiscated and seemingly for no reason anyway.

Secondly, revise all rules so that they are more reasonable and specific. For example, the ball in the net should be just a guideline, and the rule against the playing of ball games in non-designated areas should be more specific and clear.

Thirdly, put all balls that are confiscated after the rules have been revised into the PE storeroom, and not under teachers’ desks. This way, students can benefit and make use of the balls during PE. Teachers will also appear more transparent on the confiscation of balls, and students will not misunderstand that the teachers want our balls for themselves, be it to play with it like their own, to give to their children, or to sell for extra cash.

Fourthly, provide more sports facilities in our school. An extra volleyball court and surrounded with fences with a door for it preferred. Better maintained fields would be a bonus. The reason why Singapore has to import its athletes is this: There is a lack of sport facilities in schools, thus discouraging students to excel in sports since it is difficult to do so in school. Also, there are no CCAs that train or mould students into future professional footballers.

Fifth of all, increase the height of our fences, preferably to about five stories high. So we can’t kick the ball over to where the teachers can complain about us. If possible, a force field dome around the basketball and volleyball court will suffice too.

Lastly, educate the school teachers and staff to be more open minded and reasonable. Or, if that does not work, sack and replace them all.I shall end this letter here and we hope too see an improvement in the current situation.

Thank you for your patience.

School and a Frog

2006-07-23T13:49:00.000+08:00

Hey guys, thanks for visiting.

I hate school. Most of you probably do too.

Teachers in Nan Hua High School are getting crazier. Many of them are gearing into the kaopeh Predator-mode, meaning, they're fiercer, madder (is there such a word?) and more unreasonable. Both new, and old ones.

Sigh... And I'm amongst some of the few who are constantly being targets of their attacks. Just my luck.

Probably I have been a little talkative and have not been handing in my work very punctually. And some of the teachers are not very happy with that. But I think that alone should not make them so... hot. And the problem is, how do you explain those who do their homework and pay attention in class, but yet are targetted by these teachers?

I think the teachings regularly hold meetings. These meetings are between ex-teachers who taught the students and the current ones teaching various subjects. So it goes something like these:

"Hmm... Oh, and there's this student, -what's his name?- oh yeah, Jerry. He's a little talkative and likes doodling during my lessons."

"He's not that bad actually. He doesn't pay attention during my classes, but has a talent for art."

"Oh, you mean the one sitting at the back of the class? Yeah, he doesn't regularly hand in his homework either. He's quite bright actually."

"He's quite rebellious though..."

"Jerry's quite a problem isn't he?"

"Yep, he sure is."

"You have no idea. I was his form teacher last year, and he was a big headache. Someone has to
do something about that problematic kid. He was torturing and bullying this poor kid......"

"Oh my, at least he hasn't done anything like that this year."

"Are you sure? He's THE DEVIL in flesh. You're probably just not aware of the things he does."

"Maybe..."

"Maybe? Make that a confirmation. I had this experience with him last year......"

"I heard he isn't doing very well academically either."

"He has an attitude problem."

"Maybe he has family problems..."

"He's just one big problem. Can't wait to get him off my hands..."

"Oh, and guess what he did during my lesson just today..."

And soon, I'm the worst student there can ever be. They brainwash each other, and I become the devil in flesh.

And whatever comments that appear in my report book becomes thouroughly negative. And mostly untrue. For example "Jerry is a bright boy. However, he is very talkative and lazy. He should be more initiavtive. He should also be more socialable. He can't get along with people well. He has an attitude problem."

Wow... Whatever. I seriously do not care anymore.

Teachers suck, homework sucks, lessons are boring, subjects are getting harder, and there's a whole lot of stress. Balls disappear, we're now late if we go to school at 7.20pm, students borrowing money and not returning, canteen food prices are rising, the food sucks, ties must be worn on Thursdays or you're dead...

School just sucks.

I seriously don't get educated very much there. I know my future has now become very unstable, and I'm trying my best to excel and get to a good JC and all. Half of it is myself, not having a good concentration span and being too playful and all, but the other half is the school.
How can Mrs. B. Lim expect us to love our school, when I don't feel no love from anyone in school? I only feel coldness from the teachers.

I now go to school for only two reasons: My friends, and the occasional great moments.

Like when we adopted a frog each on Friday.

We had Biology lesson, and I was targetted (as usual) and sent out of the class for -lo and behold- talking during Biology practical lesson. And it wasn't a practice SPA or a SPA. It was normal group work. And three quarters the class were also talking. Amazing huh, how blind, or should I say single-minded, teachers can be. Twenty over people talking, and the only person she could see talking was me.

But, because she made me stand outside, I ran down, bought lunch, and ran back up, all in under five minutes. And that was how I beat the queues. I helped the others buy their lunches too.

After school, we went to look for the Lab technician to rescue the frogs from the Biology Lab. It took us a little convincing to do, but finally she gave four of them to us after taking down our particulars and class.

Mine was starving, because when I brought it home, I caught a two centimetre long spider and threw it into his (I think mine's a male) aquarium. Before it even hit the bottom of the aquarium, it had disappeared, and all that was left was a leg sticking out of Houxu's mouth. And yes, that's what I named him.

And on Saturday, when my younger brother fed him some fish food, Houxu gobbled it up with god-like speed.

Today, I fed him a bee I caught. Whoa... It was nasty. Houxu enclosed the bee inside his mouth the moment the bee was released into the aquarium. However, he opened his mouth again as the bee was still flapping its wings. And he gobbled it once again. The bee was struggling desperately in Houxu's mouth, and three of its legs were kicking violently outside Houxu's mouth. Houxu kept his mouth closed and used one of his legs to try and push the three legs into his mouth. Man, it was violent. It think the bee might have stung the inside of Houxu's mouth.

Ha, I even tried adopting a virtual pet frog like the goldfish I have on the sidebar, however, frogs were not available.

I'm having fun with Houxu. I love Houxu the frog! LOL!

Okay, I'll end my post here, 'cos some people have been complaining that my posts are too long and tiring to read. Wait, I think it really doesn't make much of any difference does it, this post is also rather long still.

Can't help myself, I lose myself and just unwind when I blog. Sorry.

What a Day!

2006-07-18T20:55:00.000+08:00

Great! Today, I had been blacklisted by a GB officer-cum-school (relieve?) teacher, and football number #4 and #5 had been confiscated, making it five balls confiscated in four schooling days.

The day started with the voting of the new council president. I personally feel that all of the candidates were not good or out-spoken enough to help voice our views and help improve the school from the bitch status it is now in.

Some of the male candidates are the kaopeh type themselves, and I even spotted YaoZhong still wearing his PE shirt after recess. He was wearing it since morning till lunch break or even longer. And if we ever approach them with our problems, I’m sure they’ll just put us off.

The female ones are all too guai or whatever and will certainly not have enough guts or rebellious-ness to criticize the school and voice our opinions.

So I voted for nobody. I wrote a whole lot of gibberish on the voting slip as YewHung did too.

Hmm… Mr. Yeo was involved in the Summer Camp Thingy so he wasn’t around for Social Studies. And guess who relieved him of our class? That Ms. ‘GB officer’ Jessie. She was attituding us since the moment she entered our class. She told us to go get our Social Studies 3B Workbook, so we all went out to get them from our lockers. And since nearly the whole class went out to get it, the locker area was really congested. So many people had to wait for the earlier batch of students to go get their books first. For example, my register number is 10, and I had to wait for Andrew (reg. 8) and Benjamin (reg. 12) to get their books before I had the space to go get mine.

Then came the teacher. She came out and started scolding everyone. She went like “ Those people standing there, what are you all doing? If you don’t want to go in and do your work, you can stand out here for the whole day!”. Wow, ultimate stupidity.

Then when everyone was in, she asked those without their books to stand. Nearly half the class did. She saw XiYue, who was one of those standing, with his shirt untucked, and told all those standing to be seated, except XiYue. And she mde him stand for the entire lesson even after his shirt was tucked in. And she kept on scolding him.

So he was already mega hot, and to make matters worse, I stupidly sent him a message at a wrong timing, and he turned round to see me smiling, so he naturally thought I had messaged him just to disturb him (which was actually true, ‘cos that message was the last ‘Yue’ installment to the Dai-Xi-Yue series of messages I sent him). However, he did not even read that message. He just felt angry that a had messaged him, and he shouted across the room “ Chee Bye! ni2 you3 wen4 ti2 ah?”

Apparently, the teacher was deaf, and started asking who shouted that when XiYue was just right behind her. She started scolding the whole class and stuff and said dumb things such as “The person who shouted that had better stand up and not be a coward.” when XiYue was already standing.

When the class finally told her it was XiYue, she started scolding him, and he reached an all-time undisputed hotness. And he gave me that “you’re dead, you’re gonna regret this” glance.

So, I stood up and told her that it was in fact me who shouted that. She then brought me to the staff room to find Mrs. Chang, who was not in, and gave me a lecture outside the staff room. And she said that she was going to inform the BB officers of my behaviour and for my rank to be demoted and for them to do ‘the appropriate actions’.

All this when it wasn’t even me who shouted all those. When I returned up, as most of you would have thought, XiYue was no longer angry with me. Was it a sacrifice worth making? Hmm… I don’t know, but I think that I would rather not have our friendship ruined over an SMS and for my ass to be whacked the shit out off. And I guess I deserved it.

Then the rest of the lessons for the day were pretty much normal, with Mrs. Chang suaning me throughout her lesson and stuff.

After school, we went to play football. And the softball bitches were also having another match. We were as careful as ever this time not to kick the football over the fence, and I even told everyone present that whoever kicks the ball over will have to pay. Then he can have his revenge on the teachers-in-charge for all I care.

So we played. And we played till 5pm. Then some lower secondary students came to play. With BoWen goalkeeping, it was me on three of them. And I owned them big time. LOL. Sadly, the lower secondary students were clearly upset with me scoring like 15 goals compared to their two goals single-handedly. They started ramming ball after ball at BoWen the moment they got possession of the ball. But still not one went in.

And one of them known as Testicles accidentally volleyed the ball over the fence.

The softball match had already ended, and the girls were shouting “Three cheers, and three cheers, and three cheers for…” And the ball had landed way off the area of their pitch. It landed at the side of the field, by the fence, even outside the out line.

It was in no way of any disturbance to their already ended game.

But still the teacher-in-charge took it and kept it. And with her was another ball which I recognised as 301’s (was it Jasper’s?). So it was an Adidas StarFinder and another Adidas StarGlider confiscated.

The Nan Hua Hurricanes are indeed one hell of a Hurricane. They come quickly and without warning, go quickly and without warning, and take everything with them, leaving nothing but destruction behind.

Well, what a day. And it’s not going to be easy to get Testicles to pay me or buy me another StarGlider. Sigh.

Okay, I’m ending my post here, and with a note: I hate softball. No, I don’t really hold anything against any of the girls, but rather, the sport. And don’t blame me for that, it’s the teachers-in-charge who are making it the most hated CCA in Nan Hua.

Bowling!

2006-07-18T20:14:00.000+08:00

Yesterday, Daniel, Daisy and I went to the West Coast Recreation Centre beside the sports stadium to play BOWLING!

Yups, we were in school and Mrs. Lim chased us all out of the school as the Secondary Three ‘O’-Levels Listening Comprehension Examination was going on. MOst people had already left the school.

So we decided that returning home on such a beautiful day with such a good opportunity to go out together would be a waste, so Mr. Dai suggested that we go bowling.

So we went there on bus and the price was EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL! It was like $2.30 per game and the lane, bowling balls and shoes were not exactly of the best condition.

However, we had a fun time, and this was the final score in our last game for the day:

LOL! For your information, J stands for Jerry, me, DT stands for Daisy Dai Tong, and D stands for Daniel.

The NHHS Ball Fetish (Letter to school?)

2006-07-17T21:33:00.000+08:00

Our school is getting more and more bitchy. Has the school gone to the dogs? More and more problems are arising and are getting to my nerves.

I shall address on just one of them today.

* * *

I have just become $30 poorer, all thanks to our wonderful school. And when I say poorer, I mean poorer. I don’t mean it like: They just made me buy two bloody files, buy one assessment book, pay for science workshop course fee, pay for a Five Year Series book and pay class fund. Because I don’t really get poorer in such an instance, the $30 has just been converted to another form.

I really mean it that the school had just robbed, oops, I meant taken, $30 from me, like they always do.

On Thursday (13/07/2006), my friends and I were playing football after school. There was a full-field match between the Secondary Two students and the volleyball court (yes, how pathetic, there is an obvious lack of sports facility in our school) was occupied, so we had to play in the basketball court. Any other areas are ‘non-designated playing areas’, and playing there is an offence.

Playing football at the basketball court, we were constantly the targets of verbal assaults from the basketball players as we were ‘disrupting their games’. So when the ball went in the direction of a group of lower secondary basketball players, I quickly tried to kick it back upwards, away from them. However, I kicked it a little too high and it landed on the second floor corridor outside the hall.

Two of us went up to retrieve the ball, and when we reached the second floor, we were just in time to see our beloved Mr. Fonseka pick up the ball and stroll into the hall. We went after him, wanting to ask for the ball back, but we saw that there was a Secondary Four Oral examination or practice of some sort, and Mr. Fonseka was examining a student. So we waited for the student’s turn to end before approaching him.

When the student was done, he did not even want to talk to us or hear us out. He just gestured for the next student to come forth. So we waited for this next student to be tested before we tried to approach him once more.

After waiting for another 15 minutes, the guy had finally bullshitted enough. We wanted to try ask Mr. Fonseka for the ball back once more, but once again, he did not give us a chance to, and simply called for the next student in line to be tested.

This particular student, however, had noticed us standing outside the hall and told Mr. Fonseka that we had been waiting to speak to him.

At this point, most would probably think that he would come over to us, tell us not to kick the ball up anymore, and return us t he ball. Or at least he would tell us off and keep the ball.

But no, that was not the case. The bastard of a teacher simply told the student to ignore us, be seated, and carry on.

By now, all five of us were there at the corridor. After waiting for nearly half an hour without doing anything standing outside the hall, all that we achieved was… successfully passing of time and being blatantly ignored! Damn, making us stand and wait for so long, and wasting half an hour of my life away was a punishment harsh enough for my accident. No need to take my ball.

My blood was boiling. Our bloods were boiling. I could even feel my face turn hot and the blood vapour rushing out my nostrils.

I am not just writing to complain about the confiscation of the ball (Damn, if that dude has never touched a fucking ball all his childhood, fine, I’ll give it to him. Just say please or something.), but also to question the unreasonable basis of confiscation of the ball, and the bloody attitude I was given.

Here’s why I am furious:
1. It was a bloody ACCIDENT.
2. The ball did not even enter the hall. How much disturbance can that cause?
3. Which do you find more distracting: 1) A ball that lands on the corridor outside an examination hall for 20 seconds before two students brings it back down, or 2) A ball that lands on the corridor outside an examination hall for 20 seconds before the examiner stands up, go get it, return, and proceed with the rest of the examination, with the ball between his legs under the examination table, with five students waiting outside the hall?
I would definitely think the latter, but apparently the school thinks otherwise.
4. Nobody even informed us of the examination or warned us of playing in the courts downstairs.
5. Time is precious, life is short. Time is money. That bastard wasted half an hour of my life, God damn it!

Now, just 17 hours after that incident, our class was supposed to have PE lesson. Our PE teacher had previously told us to go to the hall for PE that lesson. So we went there, bringing another new football along, because it was PE lesson, and after it was recess.

However, after waiting for 10 minutes for the teacher, she still did not arrive, so we decided to play football. We could not go to the field as it had rained earlier and it was half-flooded, half-muddy. Neither could we go to the courts as the lower secondary students were having recess and they had occupied all the courts. Also, we figured that since the teacher had instructed for us to go to the hall, it was only right to stay around the premises. So we played there, outside the hall.

We were just juggling the ball, and there were no windows around for us to accidentally smash, so we reckoned it was okay to engage in some sports activity like football during PE lesson. I mean, if you wanted me to just sit quietly in one corner and continue waiting for 20 minutes before going for recess, you’re crazy. If I come to school to sit quietly in one corner and wait, I might as well stay at home!

So there we were playing, and then came our OM Mr. Ng. He came, he saw, he took. Not a chance for explanation. Come on; is playing football during PE lesson where the teacher instructed us to go to an offence? If it is, our school has to be the most unreasonable and contradictory school in the entire Singapore.

After school that day, we went to play football again, but as usual, both the football field and volleyball court were occupied. The softball girls were having a match and the secondary four students were playing at the court.

So we were forced to share and play with the Secondary One students who were also made to play football at the basketball court.

So there we were playing and then while playing, one of us accidentally kicked the ball over the fence to the field. The next thing we knew, the softball people had taken our ball and did not want to return it back.

Great, that would make three balls confiscated in two days.

This was not the first, and definitely will not be the last time the softball people had taken our balls away from us. The softball tournament season earlier this year had seen three balls, just from our class alone, being confiscated.

Every time their softballs (which are not even soft) come our way, we gladly return them back. Now once in while our footballs go over to them, we hardly get to see them again.

That field is meant to be a FOOTBALL FIELD, not a softball pitch. I mean, would there be football goal posts in a softball pitch? We are already understanding enough to share it with them and let them draw funny lines all across the field. But it really crosses the line when a football is no longer allowed in a football field. That’s outrageous.

I would now like to bring you back two years. The very first ball I ever brought to Nan Hua was confiscated by Mrs. Lim just two weeks after I bought it. I was coming back from recess to my class, with the ball in my hands and it was just taken from me. Because it was not in a plastic bag or net. I did not even bounce or roll or kick it.

Now, not everybody can afford to buy a net, and whatever happened to Singapore’s campaign against the use of plastic bags?

The rule should be corrected such that the ball will be confiscated if it is found rolling or bouncing or being kicked outside designated play areas. Having a plastic bag or net to store it should be just a precaution the student can take to prevent the likelihood of the ball being confiscated.

I would thus like to make a few suggestions and alternative solutions, don't attack me for not doing so (Though I am not paid to come up with them, while the school is paid to address such issues. My parents are tax payers too, you know.).

Firstly, return us back all our footballs.

Secondly, revise all rules so that they are more reasonable and specific.

Thirdly, provide more sports facilities in our school.

Fourthly, increase the height of our fences.

Lastly, equip the school staff with more thinking brains.

I shall now end here, and I hope too see an improvement in the current situation.

Thank you for your patience (if you've read till here, you're patient).

2006 World Cup 3rd/4th Placing Match

2006-07-09T04:44:00.000+08:00

This is the latest you can get, I'm blogging about the results of the 2006 World Cup 3rd/4th placing match between Portugal and Germany even before the match ends. LOL...

Just too excited so I couldn't resist the temptation of rushing to my computer to blog about the match as soon as possible.

Germany wins Portugal 3-1 (unless someone scores in the last minute). Woots!~

The match was quick paced from the start and waves and waves of players were seen running to attack from both sides.

The first half was filled with excitement, however, there was no goal. There were two beautiful shots made by the Germans, which would have scored if the Portugal goalkeeper was anyone a par below Ricardo, but they were nicely saved by the keeper.

By the 50th minute, Portugal had a possesion percentage of 57% (now that's a lot of difference) and had made two shots on target. The Germans, on the other hand, had only 43% of possesion of the ball, but had made six shots on target.

However, in the 57th minute, Bastien Schweinsteiger received the ball, dribbled deeper into the Portugal area, did some fancy footwork to shirk off two Portugal defenders and found an opening between the two defenders. The timing was perfect as he swung his right foot all the way back and slammed the ball from between the two defenders towards the Portugal goal. Ricardo jumped in the right direction, however, by luck some might say, the ball flew right between his outstretched hands into the back of the goal.

In the 60-something minute, there was a foul committed by the Portugese just outside their box. Schneider took the free-kick and tried to make a low cross for a fellow German player to put to the back of the net. However, Portugese player Petit stretched out his leg to deflect away the ball at the wrong time and position, scoring an own goal. I have a feeling that if Petit did not try to reach for the ball, Ricardo would have saved it.

In the 77th minute, Schweinsteiger did a replay of what he did in the 57th minute, skillfully dribbling the ball before scoring another right-legged long-ranged goal. He was so elated that he even took off his jersey after scoring the goal, and paid the price of a yellow card. But since it was Germay's last match, it didn't really matter as long as he does not commit anything that can amount to another yellow after that.

Only in the last few minutes of the game did Portugal score a last minute goal to close up the goal difference. A Portugal player dive-headed a ball crossed to him powerfully to the left side of the goal from close range in the 87th minute. Oliver Kahn would never be able to save that sudden goal, which was out of reach, standing in the centre of the goalpost.

It was a thrilling match indeed.

That was just an amateur attempt at covering a match, and as you can tell I'm quite bad at it, being not as observant as sports column writers and unable to take note of players' names and remember details. But it was just so... great a match I just had to pen it down.

As Oliver Kahn's last World Cup game, I would like to say that he was a great goalkeeper, and, in my opinion, if Jens Lehmann were to be goalkeeping just now, he would even have let in another Portugal goal in the first half. And if that did happen, even though Germany would also have won, Oliver Kahn might just beat Jens Lehmann up, cos he let that ball him, and made him become a Theo Walcott (i.e. being sent to the World Cup but return back without playing a single game).

Anyway, I still have a few words to say. Firstly, Germany will still be my favourite team this World Cup, and secondly, Jurgen Klinsmann, Germany's coach, has done his job well. Very Well. And lastly, Miroslav Klose will be this World Cup's Golden Boot, unless Henry can score a double for France tomorrow.

Now all that's left is the World Cup finals, and let's wait and see if the predictions I made in the previous post comes true.

A Long Tiring Week

2006-07-09T01:10:00.000+08:00

Okay, less than two hours to the World Cup 3rd/4th Placing match. So meanwhile while I'm waiting, I'm here blogging again. This morning's (or rather yesterday's morning's), post was actually not meant to be just a short 'joke', but rather a long post which only began that way. It was short 'cos I had to end there, which was just as well, as my father had returned home (from wherever he went).

Okay, so let's start.

Good news first... MrBrown (aka Lee Kin Mun; no hinding behind a pseudonym here) has resumed his regular show! Woots~ So they (MICA, TODAY and whoever or which-ever authorities were involved) decided to let him off (with the 'crime' of simply voicing out his opinion). I am a huge supporter of him, and his good friend Mr Miyagi (aka Benjamin Lee) of course. I will carry on to read his blog, download his hilarious podcasts and support him morally (as far as my limited computer usage permits me to).
Great job you two, we are all proud of you. Thanks for voicing out for all us ham ji commoners.

And for those who are living in caves offshore and don't even know who MrBrown is or what his blog URL is (or even what a podcast is), his link is in my sidebar (and it has been there since the start of this blog).

Over to school news, I have, once again, a whole stack of assignments to be complete and failed my Chemistry test. I failed it 1/25. That freakin' sucks man.
YewHung and I were like studying for it and even went to Miss Lim for an 'emergency remedial lesson' with her the day before the test (where I got to pon BB). We wrote like loads of calculations and workings and attempted as many questions as possible. In short, we tried our best. Apparently, even that is not enough. We both got 1/25, which is also what XiYue and ChengWei got. ChengWei actually just put 'A' for all the multiple choice questions and went to sleep. And he got equally high, or in this case low, marks as us.
Now that sucks. I officially confirm that Chemistry - is simply not my thing.

Homework, oh homework... There's a never-ending pile of them. In fact, they're constantly increasing. It's a freaking vicious cycle.
First, the school load us up, and even overflows us, with June holiday homework. Then we return to school with like half of them done.
Then, we are either made to stay back or bring it home to rush through them to be completed.
Meanwhile, while we are completing overdue assignments, more homework is given for the day.
The next day, we hand in our overdue holiday homework but with our homework for the day before incomplete.
So we are either made to stay back to finish them or bring them home to be rushed to be completed. Other subject teachers will also want you to stay back or bring home to complete their overdue holiday assignments and homework of the day before.
Now, while all the rushing is going on, even more homework is given for the day.
You see the vicious cycle now, and it can only get worse, as our workload increases as we move on into the new term. Also with the End-of-Year Examinations coming soon, we will be piled with more practices.
Fuck, I can even picture myself doing overdue assignments even after the O-Levels.

And the teachers aren't helping with my stress and frustation. They (from Yong to KYC to Chang) are all targeting us, 'the usual suspects' (I don't even understand why we are 'the usual suspects' when we didn't commit anything wrong, or at least anything big enough to be treated this way).

Damn, Sec 3 life sure is stressful. And yes, I do have stress, though I try to always be positive and smile and not express my stressfulness. I mean we all have learnt something from the Bus Uncle video, haven't we?

I should contain myself in lead 'cos even if explode at home and not in school, the radiation is sure to kill all the teachers and students. Well, I'm sure at least the whole of the West district will die.

On Friday, the MOE Excel Day, I had a little de-stressing. We went bowling, which was okay (especially after considering that they had under-charged us a game), then went to watch Superman Returns. I would rate it three and probably a half out of five star.

It wasn't really that good and all but at least the visuals were good. And we watched it in Digital and not projected film at West Mall's Eng Wah Cinema, so there were no constant random flickering and stuff, and the audio experience was superb. And the duration of the movie (about two and a half hours) made paying $8 for it seem not that expensive.

But the good things end about there. The storyline was cheesy and predictable, and it didn't leave me with the 'Wow... I wish there was a Superman and I could meet him in person and be friends with him... Or better still, I wanna be Superman!' feeling I had after watching the Spider-man movies and the X-Men trilogy.

In the case of Spider-man, I felt like 'Wow... How cool would it be if I were Spider-man... I could do cool jumps and flips in school, as long as I don't shoot a web and reveal my identity as Spider-man, and at my age, I think I can handle the 'great responsibility' that comes with great power. In fact, who said I needed to protect my identity as Spider-man? I can leap from buildings to buildings and web-sling to school and back. Freaky!'.
I totally wanted to get bitten by a radioactive spider after watching that movies.

In the case of X-Men, I felt like 'Cool... Mutants... Evolved, new-improved human beings... How I wish I could be one... What powers would I have? I sure don't want an uncontrollable power like Rougue's or Cyclops's, I want to be in total control. I want to be able look people in the eyes and touch them without burning the shit outta them or reducing them to a pile of ash or bones. I don't want to wear weird sunglasses or gloves. Wolverine is cool. But I think I would prefer Night-Crawler's power of teleportation. I can teleport to school and back everyday, no longer needing to worry about heavy school bags or transport fares. I can go places in split-seconds, see things, visit people, steal things (okay, so maybe not)...'
I totally saw puberty as something good that may lead me to discover mutant powers, instead of the dreadful can't-sing-no-more, face-filled-with-pimples phase after watching the movies.

Well, but the de-stressing day came to a stressful end, as my piano teacher called me seven times through the ending minutes of the show. I couldn't pick it up in the cinema hall and she just gave me missed call after missed call. My phone would only stop vibrating in my pocket for about five seconds before it began again. It totally spoilt my movie experience as I couldn't manage to watch the end of the show properly.

The whole problem: I told the group much earlier to watch a movie, but they insisted with playing games after games of bowling. When we decided to catch Superman Returns, it was already 2.45pm. So we bought the tickets for the 3pm show. I thought that the show, like most other movies, would last about an hour an a half. So I bought the tickets too, thinking I would make it in time for my piano lesson at 5.15pm. Big mistake. She called me at around 5.15pm later when I was still in the hall. I got a shock of my life looking at the time displyed by my watch.

I later just passed XiYue the football for safekeeping over the weekend (Daisy, thanks loads) and rushed back as quick as possible. I phoned home to tell my father to inform my teacher I wouldn't make it on time and for my teacher to just cancel the lesson. My father was fuming over the phone and I knew that I was in deep shit.

I later came up with a damn big lie as an excuse for not turning up for lesson, but I shall not go into that. I'm just ashamed for skipping lesson to watch a film version of a children's cartoon, and then lying to my Dad. But at least I got out of that shit. In one piece.

Sigh...

This (or rather, yesterday) morning, at around 8am, KengThiam again tried to force me into the might of Jesus by SMSing me a message inviting me to go to church. Freak, this dude's been pressurising me to go to church ever since he made me Squad I/C. And hey, I'm not anti-Christ or promoting racial tension in Singapore, so don't feel offended or try arresting me.

And just because I went once to shut his and JT's mouth from asking me to go once and for all, he started welcoming and warming up to me as a 'new member of the family'. He even circulated messages to his cell group, including me, introducing me as the 'newest member of our family'.

So I didn't reply him, hoping that he would forget about it and think that I didn't read or receive his message or something. But after knowing later that he also tried asking WeiJie to go, I decided to repond to his message at about 3pm. I wrote in my message that my parents didn't want me to go (which is true), and that I had lots of homework that need to be done (also true) and that I had to study for upcoming tests (also true).

What I didn't write, was that I didn't want to go, and I am not going to become a Christian.
But I figure he has already found that out himself as both WeiJie and I have been rejecting him since he started asking us to go to church.
Also, this was the tone and content of his reply: Okay. I hope u can try to come as it is impt to grow in e community w other christians and hear e word of God from e pastor.

LOL...

Anyways, there was so much stress this week that I started a habit of prank calling others, from XiYue, to BoWen, to Nick, to my sister's friends, and even to total and complete strangers. I had quite some fun with voice imitations and call diverts. Haha. Now I'm starting to receive quite a lot of weird SMSes from people whose numbers are not stored in my phone.

And finally, sports news.
The World Cup.
Germany will win the match later and come in third place. Miroslav Klose will be the Golden Boot.
Portugal will just be left with a crying Ronaldo winning the Most Hated Player award and the Best World Cup Actor and Diver award.
The Italians will win over the aging France in the finals, though I am supporting France. I am hoping that just maybe the French will win with Zidane and Henry in top form. I also want France to win because XiYue's supporting Italy. LOL.
But seriously, I don't think the French players can keep up with the pace of the Italians and break through their solid line of defence.
But we'll just wait and see.

Advert

2006-07-08T09:38:00.000+08:00

Ha! I was going home yesterday and I saw a big advertisement when I alighted the 197 bus at the bus-stop. And the advertisement left me with a grin on my face.

It was not because it contained a funny picture or message, like this one...

Instead, it was a Tiger Beer advertisement showing four men in the front row of a spectator stand cheering. It said something like to be anywhere in the world to catch your faourite country play or something. I can't quite remember. But what I can remember was, the four largest words on the advertisement were screaming out:
Brazil. Argentina.
England. Germany.

The irony of it all was that all four countries has already been ousted from being the World Cup champion. And only Germany has one more match to play, the other three countries have already have their players packed up and return home.

2006-07-02T20:14:00.000+08:00

Hello!

Sigh... I haven't blogged for such a long time.. Sian..

Well, let's start on a good note by celebrating Deutschland's (Germany) victory over Argentina with a video of 'my' rendition of Pachelbell's Cannon in D. Well, it's kinda 'my' rendition cos this dude's also called Jerry. Enjoy.

Okay.. Lets see now..

Ah, school. Not so good back in school. Our 'infamous gang' has been put together at the back of the class as part of the new class sitting arrangement. Unfortunately however, it will not be so for very long, or so I predict. With our new mega, record-breaking kaopeh Biology teacher Mdm Yong Tau Foo Delights going to try seperate us and with Miss 'Princess' Lim telling Mrs Chang that sitting together will cause us to 'self-destruct', it's only a matter of time before we get seperated.

And that Yong Tau Foo Delights is also damn 'one kind' sia.. Giving us some fucking Bio homework to be done in two days, expecting all answers to be one-page-long, on her first lesson she stepped into class. She also made me stay back during lunch break because I wrote 'Yong Tau Foo Delights!' on the white board before she came in. Did I even say or write that that's supposed to be her? Luckily, I had already intended to stay back during lunch to piagh my Maths, Geography, English and her fucking homework.

Which brings me to my next point, STRESS AT SCHOOL. So fucking stressed up sia, Sec 3 life.. YewHung and I had to stay back and work OT until 7pm on Friday to piagh all the work (great friend, that guy). Only Mr Chow (who helped us get into the staff room and helped us find a stapler) and Mr Chia were the only teachers left in school (great teacher, that guy).

For Maths we had to complete the whole of all the Chapter 5 Excercises, fill in all our notes/ missing worksheets/ undone excercises etc. by Friday because Mr Liu was in trouble. Why? That's 'cos our class did very poorly in the standard for the Mid-Year Exams, and now, the Maths HOD wants to check all our files and Excercise Books to see if Mr Liu was doing his job.

For Geography, we were given a worksheet of source-based essay questions to be done by Friday, and it will be a graded assignment for our CA.

For English, all the incomplete holiday assignments. Fuck! Do you have any idea how much that is?! It's like: Four three-page-long article reviews, two comprehension excercises (including summary), two book reviews, one past year O-Levels paper..
A mountain. Quite literally!

And then there's Chinese homework too, which very soon, Mr Kam YC will come hounding me for.

Sigh.. And now, there's still some stupid English Maori project to be done by this coming Tuesday. Arrgghh!!! *Tearing hair* Stressed...

Well, but it's great to be back in school though, 'cos the football and friends really pretty much compensated for the stress and assignments.

Oh yea, and yesterday, I met Mr Foo (yes, our principal) at Royal Sporting House in Great World City. He was like, "Eh, you.. (trying to recall if he knows me or something) What you doing here?"
I was like thinking: ... Duh, what do you think I'm doing there? Working as a salesperson?
So I just replied with a "Err.."
And he asked why I wasn't in school. I reminded him that it was Saturday.
Then he asked why I didn't have NDP practice. I told him I was Sec 3.
LOL.

Hmm.. The World Cup was pretty thrilling now that it's approaching the finals. The beginning was going smoothly and expectedly, but now anything can happen. And in the case of Brazil, it had happened. Brazil were so slack in defence. I'm in total shock.

I mean, yeah, France deserved it, they gave their all, with Henry nearly scoring a second goal. Brazil on the other hand was totally slack. No one even bothered to man-mark Thierry Henry, France's secret weapon, during the free-kick. Carlos was even bending over, with hands on his knee, resting and catching his breath. And after the whole thing, the Samba Boys just smiled as they exited the stadium. Super slack.

But it is not all bad. I would like to give Germany two thumbs up. They have a great coach and team captain. And Miroslav Klose, Germany's and the overall top scorer, had been excellent, scoring five goals this World Cup so far. His teamwork with fellow striker Lucas Podolski is great, though Podolski has been quite a let-down at times.

I predict a Germany-France finals on the 10th of July (Singapore time). And Germany will have another star to display on their national team crest.

Hooray for Deutschland!

June Holidays

2006-06-14T22:54:00.001+08:00

Hello people! How's the holidays been thus far? Well, for me, it's rather fun and eventful even though I cannot use the computer and stuff.

Holiday classes
Well, I wonder why they call it a month-long holiday when it's actually more like two week-long holiday. I had to return to school for lessons for nearly everyday of the first two weeks of school.

The first two weeks were pretty much like schooling days, except we can reach school half an hour later and return home later on some days where we have afternoon classes or Biology workshop that ends at four. Oh yea, and the teachers also give extra holiday homework on top of those they had assigned before the school term closed.

Okay, so the holidays have been kinda stressful and all, but I don't really hate going back to school so much cos the lessons are conducted in either the AVA room or the computer lab. Plus, the lessons also serve as an occasion to get us all back together in the holidays. Which means two things: Soccer sessions, and LAN gaming sessions.

Holiday assignments
Haven't started yet, don't plan to anytime soon.

But I guess I'll have to sooner or later. I'm just procrastinating, but once I start doing it, I know I'll be doomed. There's like so much to be done. Well, I wouldn't really want to stress my head off during my holidays. I mean extra assesments are enough.

Saturday Street Soccer Sessions (SSSS)
Whatever happened to the SSSS? I really want to lead my team into revival.

First week of holidays: Cancelled due to some dude's wedding thingy that all the organisers were involed in or had to attend. Second week: Boys' Brigade LDC2 camp. Third week? I sure do hope it's on this Saturday, I hate the idea of being stuck at home on a perfectly fine Saturday. Especially when it's in the holidays.

Boys' Brigade Leadership Training Camp 2 (BB LTC2)
The BB LTC2 was from Friday (9 June) to Sunday (11 June). At first I was the only one going from my squad (quite expected from my squad) but suprisingly, Bowen was convinced to go one night before it. And even more suprising, he convinced JingXuan to go too. Wow.

The camp was only so-so, the most fun activity we did was only - kyaking, again. But it was not the activities that made the camp so memorable. It was the trainers, the jokes we shared, the people we shared the jokes with, the things we did at night, and the interesting people we met that were truly unforgetable. A Nut, a Scallop, Way The Truth, Stick-in-mouth, Ivan Sim etc. LOL. Approach JingXuan, WeiJie or me for more details. Bowen went to a different group, Beta. Poor lonely bowen.

My only regret going? Missing the FIFA World Cup™ opening ceremony and match. But at least we had a rather live coverage of it with the help of Best Friend's friend SMSing the progress and scores of the match at night in the bunk. Dang, Germany's too strong, it made me lose my bet and a dollar. I betted on Germany winning 3-2.

But at least the experience was great PLUS we get to be sergeants PLUS we get an extra badge. And we played DotA after that. Played -ar and I OWNED JingXuan and WeiJie. Bowen and I were one one team and I was the top player even though I was using an unfamiliar hero, Luna Moonfang. *Ego, ego.*Well, I guess it was luck that I got Luna. I always knew it was strong, but I've never actually used it and know exactly how strong.

Okay, not to get carried away, all in all, camp was great and I don't regret travelling all the way to Sembawang with 10kg++ of baggage and back.

FIFA World Cup™
Okay, time for World Cup talk. Who's gonna win? Brazil, Germany, England, Argentina, Portugal, Spain or the Czech Republic? Personally, I support Brazil and Germany, and I'm betting on Brazil to win.

The matches so far were quite okay. Germany did well, England disappointed, Australia shocked, Brazil underperformed... There wasn't really much action, maybe I'll just wait for the semi- and finals. I bet true intense action will be present by then. People will be watching at the edges of their chairs.

I do not have SCV at home, but I guess going over to my neighbour's and sometimes to the coffee shop will be good enough. The one month of matches aren't really worth subscribing for a minimum of six months of SCV. My daily dose of The New Paper should be enough.

Oh, just in, Spain just destroyed Ukrain 4-0. Wow, that should really change their reputation as underperformers.

Days spent at home
Well, most of the days where there are no lessons or activities in school, I'm at home. The whole entire day. Not a very healthy 'activity' to be engaging in for a guy my age.

So how do I spend my time at home? Studying and doing assesments my mother loaded me with. She said that I really need to catch up and stuff, and I know she means good, but I really can't study. Not now during the holidays with the sun shining bright high in the sky outside reminding me of what the others might be doing. My mind would be on anything but work. It's useless.

Other than studying, there's always my football to past time with. I also go cycling and re-reading some of the books in my house. Of course, there's always the tele when I don't feel like doing any of the above.

Nick won in So You Think You Can Dance. Well, quite a right choice. I mean I really am more entertained by Jamile's dancing with all that choppy and cool movements and moonwalking and sliding... But technically, Nick's better. Gotta agree with that, and Nick's more versatile, he can dance almost any dance. Jamile really can't dance ballroom, though the effort he put in is evident for all to see.

Singapore Idol Season 2. Hmm... Contestants better? Maybe. More weidos? Maybe. But I'm rather amused by some of the contestants who made it to the Top 28. Well, some of them really CAN'T SING, but there they are maluing themselves on national television thinking they can sing very well. Reminds me of some guy I used to know. At least some of them who made it to the Top 12 are worthy.

Hang on a second, after typing for so long, I realise that my holidays are really not that eventful as I had typed at the start of this post. Either it had just been a typical holiday without going anywhere overseas, or I had just forgotten some of the stuff that had happened and did not post about them.

Anyways, I think I have enjoyed my holidays so far, BUT, the mugging will have to start from now. My homework has to be done.

Hope you guys enjoy your holidays.

Hi people.

YongYue tagged "hi. nice to see you posting rather frequently. =)" on my tag board. I'm afraid not anymore. This will most likely be the last post I will be posting for a long time. My father has banned me from using the computer for at least the entire school holidays, but I'm not blaming him. I DID do very badly for my exams afterall.

In fact, I am not supposed to be here now. Should be doing my Chemistry assesment... I'm using the computer 'illegally' now because I thought that if I were to stop blogging, the last post had better not be as unpleasant as the previous one. So here I am blogging a pleasant last post now.

Here's more about the owner of this blog, me. And yes, forget about the stuff about me in the sidebar. I figure you know that's all just crap. It's time to get back down to earth.

PHYSICAL STATE
No illness, physically fit.

MENTAL STATE
Stressed. Pre-exam stress, Exam stress, Post-exam stress... WTF

SPIRITUAL STATE
... Huh? I think I'm okay... I don't think my spirit's left me... Sorry, I'm not a realigious kinda person.

FINANCE
Financially unstable. I'm freaking broke. People still owing me loads of money (maybe I should not be so generous or kind). iPod and mobile phone stolen (yes, now my phone too, so don't bother calling or SMSing me). If only I can strike TOTO... Just joking.

THE SPECIAL ONE
Sigh...

Then I can buy all the material things I wish for. But of course money and material wants are not everything.
I want my iPod back. But my old phone was lousy and belonged to the museum anyway, so I'm not wishing for it back, just for a new good one.
Good JC, good university, good job, good health... Just for a good life!
World peace? Cure for cancer?

HATES
Love the world we're born into. Try to love everyone, including thieves (I'm trying). No point hating something or someone, especially if you can't change it and only bring stress to yourself. Life's short, spend your time loving and not hating.

There's an old say that says... anything you want it too!

Take care and enjoy yourselves. Happy holidays!

Love you so...

Never say die.

2006-05-21T12:52:00.000+08:00

Hello.

Xiyue, please don't get mad over my post title.

Let's see..

Okay, 211 (2005) people sucks. Well at least a few, or should I say many, black sheeps have given me that impression. I had never wanted to use words like this on my blog, but fuck them. Fuck those sons of bitches who fucking stole my wallet last year and my iPod on Friday.

Friday was officially my suay day.

Firstly, in the morning, I was made to stand up, the only one in the whole parade square, all throughout just because I didn't have two miserable little shiny buttons. I've seen teachers, even Miss Teo, let students with ankle socks or spiked hair off more easily than that.

Next, we got back our Social Studies results, and guess what? I just got like 25/50. I had thought I would at least score at Social Studies. Damn.

Then after school, I went to play street soccer. Sian, made to be keeper again. We actually managed to stay through three rounds (thanks to my pro keeping, lol). However, during the match against Jacky and co., we had tied 1-1 when Jacky rammed the ball straight at me. But he used his left leg, which left me with a little more time to react. So I had the chance to move to the direction and save it, but not enough time to get my hands in the right position. So the ball was rammed into the tips of my finger when my hand was perpendicular to it.

The next moment, *crakk..* and all I felt was numbness, which quickly turned to pain. The fingers on my left hand had been badly sprained. So I was forced to let Mr Dai replace me as the keeper, who let the second ball in within the minute of substitution. So we lost.

Later, when we all went home, I reached into my bag for my handphone and iPod. And I realised that the latter was gone.

I ransacked my entire bag, went to the classroom to find, and even to the general office, but to no avail of finding it. I came to the conclusion that it must have been stolen not after school, but during school hours. Because my bag was in the canteen, and no one would dare steal something in front of so many people and closed-circuit cameras. So it had to be some 211 ('05) guy from my class who stayed in class during PE, recess or lunch. I should seriously have put my valuables in my locker, and not think that 211 ('05) are the lu4 bu4 shi2 yi2 sort.

And I suspect it's the same thieving bastard who stole my and Darren's wallet last year. But let's not get into last year's incident.

I don't think I will ever see it again, because it's now the weekend and god knows what he might have already done with it. So that would be $548 gone. I swear if I ever find out who stole it and get my hands of that faggot, I would fucking beat the shit out of him.

When I got home, I remembered I had piano lessons which was about to start soon. It was then that I realised: How the hell am I going to play the damned piano with my fingers in this condition?!?! It was torture I assure you.
The teacher must have been wondering why I performed so badly that day.

It was indeed a series of unfortunate events for that day.

But I'll learn to forget such unhappiness. Be optimistic, right?

Anyways, at least yesterday was great. We went for our Kyaking Star 2 course. Only 20 Sec 3s from our company went, four from my squad (me, Daisy, ChongYee and Patriot). But it was still fun. WeiJie and I were laughing at Daisy the whole time.
Dai lu mao, dai shou biao, never say dai (oops, I meant die).

We (not just WeiJie and I, but the everyone) used the word 'dai' as often as possible. Tiger (Daiger), high and low tides (dai-des).. When we were wearing our life jackets and splash deck, we were like, "Eh, it is DAI zhe ge xian or DAI zhe ge xian? Orh.. cannot TIE to TIght."

And Xiyue was like, "It's not dai hor, it's CHUAN! How can you dai a life jacket? WeiJie, you fail your Chnese arh?!?!" He was pissed indeed, but he was a good sport. He had really stopped his violent ways. Or at least, he has minimised it.

So for the rest of the day, we were like, "Never say die, oops, I meant CHUAN." LOL..

Anyways, base recovery was fun, woots~! Although my fingers were hurting all the time (thanks to the sprain), I enjoyed it the whole time. But capsize drill was seriously not funny. But the "Edmund Ng clone" kept making us repeat it. I think I did it like seven times.

Oh yeah, and WeiJie and I had some 'fun' with the vending machine, MUAHAHA!

So, I went home feeling happy at least yesterday, and also as a lobster. Yups, sunburn.

As for today? I am smelling that it's gonna stink. JT haven't called me up to go play soccer yet, and the whole morning I was bored like anything. And I actually cannot use the computer anymore, cos I failed three subjects: Chemistry, A Math and Geography.
But they're both out now, and I'm using it secretly. I have managed to log in even though the computer is password protected, smart right? *Smiles naughtily*

Ahh.. Can't really think of anything to blog about, so I think I'll end here.

The Madman™
Curse the damned thieving bastard to fucking rot and burn in hell.

The Outcomes

2006-05-18T20:34:00.000+08:00

Hiya people!

Welcome to the Super Long Post™ by The Madman™.
This is a long overdue post that I saved as a draft and kept adding a little without actually posting. Lol.. I get a little eccentric sometimes. I read Tracy's tag and I must say it IS getting a little too quiet. And I am not just talking about this blog.

The title of this post, as you would have noticed, is The Outcomes. Cos in this post, I will share about three outcomes. My MYE results, my NAPFA results and The Match this morning.

Let's start then.

---

Todays (the 'ss' syndrome from Johnny): Hmm.. Walked to school with ChengWei and ZhengYao. They both had not brought their ties. I on the other hand still had ChengWei's ties' offspring in my possesion (sorry, inside joke.. yes, it's a tie). I told ChengWei that and he said that nevermind and that I should just wear it. Rather bad move for himself. But he did save me. That's my bro.
Anyways, they spent the whole thrid of the day sitting by the corridor writing a 1000-word reflection-apology letter.
However, I was not spared of torture either. Daniel, Daisy and I went to hand out leadership certificates and when we came back, we were greeted with a kaopeh unreasonable, spasticated, saddistic relief teacher (she calls me 'Gary'). The teacher is MAD (ask Daniel or Daisy). And we had her for two whole stinking periods. Then slept through Chemistry. Oh yea, Brazilian waxed ZhengYao's table too.

Nothing much happened for the rest of the schooling hours, except during lunch when 19 of us (football players) left the field only 2-3mins after the bell sounded. We had a little 'incident' with none other than Banana Lim and went to see her after school. We all ended up having to write a letter of apology addressed to her. So suay for ChengWei, WeiMing and Jasper, who was punished for the second time by her for the day. B Lim now has a deep impression of ChengWei (remember that he did not bring his thermometer some time ago?). I haven't started on the letter yet.

Played basketball while waiting for Napfa. Daisy's team got more people and got him from basketball team. Still got OWNED by me, ZhengYao and Andrew. Top scorer: ME! (ego, ego.)
(To XiYue: See, I haven't turned that rusty yet.)

NAPFA was okay, got A for all items except shuttle run because I slipped. Could have won the flower.. Did quite okay, but I was aiming for more. Yes, so Gold is already the highest award, but I was more of hoping to chellenge myself. For example, I failed to do 60 sit-ups in 60 seconds. I had done 56 for the previous year, but I somehow only did 53 this year.. But at least I am happy for my improvement in the 2.4km run (10mins plus), sit-and reach (56cm) and especially my standing broad jump (241cm from 232cm last year).

Played football in the field after that. Eleven on eleven. 211'05 on one team. Needless to say, the rest of us, on the other. It was quite fun though, first 'proper match' I played in a long time. As in full field eleven on eleven. We had a slight (understatement of the year) advantage though, cos we had a PE teacher on our side. Great player. Kelvin scored two spectacular one-on-one-with-the-goalie goals. Great!

Okay, kept this part last cos some readers can't really be bothered about FOOTBALL (woots~).
See, I gots thinking of my readers ones, okays.. Anyways, Barca clinched the champion at the Champions League finals last night, or rather, this morning. Barca 2, Arsenal 1.
I actually tried to keep awake by watching all the programmes on 5 (The Bone Collector, then followed by Just For Variety), but I turned off the TV after Just For Variety cos the next show was some uninteresting show. So I plugged in my iPod instead to keep me awake.
Still, I fell asleep. Zzz.. I woke up only at 2.45am, after the show had already started, with my iPod still playing Zhng My Car (Ep. 7) in my ears. I had listened to Episode 1-7 to sleep! Lol..
So I turned on the TV and watched the match. Barca is pushing in on the attack...! Oh, possesion of the ball is lost over to the Gunners... The ball quickly returns to FCB's possesion... Oh! Lost again to Arsenal...
That kept happening time and again, over and over and over... And I fell asleep. Again. And amidst the match. It was simply too boring (apart from Ronaldinho's free kick which lasted less than a minute and curled past and over the top left corner of the goalpost). Not that most football matches are unlike that anyway, but the Gunners had really concentrated hard on their defence. Ronaldinho barely had chance to display his talent and skill.
I woke up again. It was the 70th minute into the game. Arsenal was leading 1-0. Sad. With less than 20 minutes left, I had thought that a revival for FCB was difficult, much less to say a turn of tides. I watched how the Barca players got intercepted and lost possesion of the ball a few more times and decided to turn the set off. I couldn't bare to watch Barca be defeated by Arsenal in the Champions League final.
Okay, so I have been proven wrong again, and FC Barcelona had again not failed to impress me.

Heppy evrybuddy. Cheers!

Past couple of days: Some stuff did happen, but since I can't quite remember them, they must not have been very exciting or important. Can't get the white Lotto soccer boots Daisy introduced us to. Got owned by him. Went all the way to JP then to GekPoh for nothing. Sianz..

Here are the results I have gotten back.
English Paper Two : 25 /50
Chinese Overall SA : 71 /100
A Math : 25 /80
E Math : 44 /80
Physics : 74.5 /100
Biology : 70 /100
Chemistry : 27 / 100
Geography Elect. : 23 /50

Damn. I'm deeply disheartened by my results. It's a big drop compared to last year and my previous few tests. So some results were expected (eg. Chem and A Math; see previous post). And so many people also had multiple failures.. But I really cannot accept what I'm achieving now. And neither can my parents *gulp!*.
(But still destroy Alex 5 sujects : 2 subjects. Muahaha!! Owned Daisy and ChengWei too.)

I must really work way harder for the next test or exam, no matter how small it is. Knowing that it is hard for me to really absorb much from just by sleeping/ talking / doodling through lessons in school, I am determined to try my best, at least, to pay attention in class and do my homework. And if possible, revise through work at home.

This is indeed a 'stunt' for me, cos people who know me, you know how I'm like. I think I did make such targets for myself time and again before, but I have failed. So I would really like to fulfill this and achieve high grades for Sec 3, the GCE 'O'-Levels and beyond.
If you are impressed by this dangerous stunt and want to give your support, call 1900-madman to make a $2/5/10 donation. Persons below 18 years of age are to have parental consent before calling the hotline. You can also just walk up to me in school and give me a couple of bucks. Remember, all these are for charitable causes. You can make people like me have a better life.

I hope you readers out there are satisfied or joyous over your grades, cos what you get is what you work for. If not, I would advise you guys to not be disheartened and try to be optimistic (I am trying to too). Be thankfull for those subjects you scored well in, and try to improve the not-so-satisfactory ones.

Long 4-day weekend: Did nothing much but dwell at home throughout most of the break.
Met Mrs Lew at the hawker centre with her husband on Saturday. She spotted me first and I kinda was shocked and was stuttering a little. Then she mocked me by imitating me and producing stuttering sounds and gave me the 'I know something you don't, and you won't like it if you did anyway' smile. Now I know why. I failed. By two marks.

Went to meet Jinger, YewHung, Bowen, Letts, Junjie, KeRong, GuangWei, Bright and Theodore at 11am at Queenstown MRT on Monday. I actually reached there at 10am cos my father dropped me off on the way to work. We had planned to go play LAN together. But the shop wasn't open yet, so we hung around and loitered and played freestyle football with Theodore's basketball. The shop was supposed to be open at 11am but the Uncle-on-a-scooter came only at 12pm to open it.

So we went in anyway, but were not allowed to game as it was 'a schooling day' and we had to be above 16. Oh, come on.. Give us a break. So I had waited there for two whole hours for NOTHING. So there was a change of plans. We went to play basketball instead. So Bowen and YewHung went home.

Basketball was fun, and amazingly, I haven't quite lost my touch. Second highest scorer. Woots~

Other than that one time I left the house, post-MYE has been b-o-r-i-n-g. Hope life will get better.

---

Okay, wishing everybody a good... Good anything (morning/ afternoon/ night/ luck/ time/ life etc. Pick one.)

Signing off here, byes and take care.

The Madman™

You're the thing that makes my life special and meaningful..

I'm Ba-ack!

2006-05-12T10:05:00.000+08:00

Yo! I'm back.

I'm not really sure what I'm going to blog about, cos I don't quite have anything to share with you people.. I guess I will just type on and see what comes into my head..

Okay, firstly, I would like to say "YESH!!", cos the Mid-Year Examinations are O-V-E-R!! Finally.

Next I would like to say "DIE!!", cos the Mid-Year Papers were killers. I'm so dead, cos the E Math paper was so though and B Lim still told me that it was the easiest paper she had ever set. That Banana. Anyways, I failed Chemistry too, as expected, Miss Lim told me yesterday.
I'm also bound to fail A Math cos I had left a total of around 30 marks worth of questions blank, not that I didn't know how to do them. Mrs Chang wrote on the board that the paper was until 10.50am, so I thought that I had a lot of time, so I took my time. I read and solved each question carefully and spent a very long time (around 1 hour+) on just the first page. Then only after 9.10am did she change the time to 9.50am cos she wrote it wrongly.
Damn.

Right, so anyone with any Post-MYE plans please inform me, I had better enjoy now that MYEs are over and before my Progress Report comes back. Cos after my parents see it, I'm not gonna be able to do anything or enjoy. Just pure studying.

Somehow, this year there isn't much that I am looking foward to after the MYEs. Sometimes I just wish the MYEs would only start this week. This way at least I will have 2 weeks more to revise, afterall I'm not really doing much with my time now.

Lets see.. What else..

Oh, yeah. My eyes. I can't see properly with them anymore. No, not that I've developed Myopia or anything. I just got hit with the football straight in my left eye. We were playing football on Tuesday when it happened. Now if I don't really open my eyes wide to focus really hard on something, a cloudy grey patch will appear in the vision of my left eye, obstructing my vision. I hope it will go away on its own after a few days. Cos it's irritating and it hurts.

I also got hit in the.. you-know-which part.. cos Aswin volleyed the football into that area on last Friday.. Okay, never you mind.. TMI (too much information) syndrome.

But at least I was not the only victim of flying balls this week. Apparently, yesterday Dylon kicked the ball into Mrs B. Lim's and Mr Edmund Ng's faces when they were talking. Ivan and KaiMun were telling me that he yi ju liang de, yi jian shuang diao, kill two birds with one stone, hit two kao peh head of disciplines with one ball. LOL..

Sian.. Supposed to go out after school yesterday to play LAN one.. Made both ChengWei and I wait in school for 4 hours playing soccer.. In the end, Bowen and Jinger said that they didn't want to go anymore. Made us wait in school for 4 hours only to get our plans cancelled. But at least we had some fun with Xiao Pang a.k.a. Kevin.
So we went to Lot 1 to meet Priscilla instead. Walked around doing nothing.. And went to the library children section. Read some Tamil books and then we read some Chinese ones. The supposed 'children's Chinese storybooks' contained some really cheem words none of us could read. Then I went home. And they decided to too.

Anyways, can't wait for tomorrow, when I reunite with my 'Sunderland' football team. I'm going to put my team to the top of the table.. HAHAHA!! ... Were you fooled for a moment there? NO? Oh, okay.. Nevermind. I guess I'm not fooling anyone. But either way, I am still looking forward to trash some noobish adults tomorrow.

We'll be getting our class tee soon. On the 15th according to SM. Looking forward to that too.

Hmm.. Nothing else? Okay, I'll end here then. Take care.

The Madman™

AHHH!!!!!!!!

2006-04-28T20:45:00.000+08:00

AHHH!!!!!!!!

Crap! Mid-year Test Papers are not even one week away.. And I haven't really got down to revision. I think I have already failed my Chinese Oral cos that biased Kam guy gave me a damn hard topic. Paper One for both languages should be fine though. I hope so anyway.

Now it's really critical. I haven't been listening to 60% of what was taught and understanding merely 20%. Now that's bad. That's what you get when you cross teachers like Miss Lim with hard topics, taught to a guy who has a terribly short attention span, sitting beside another guy called Alex. When you're not sleeping, you're disturbing Alex or talking cock, or drawing. Or anything that's totally unrelated to the subject being taught.

But that's just me. And it's chaos.

So now, I try to pay as much attention as possible to every lesson. Especially now that Mid-Years are here and teachers will leave hints and clues for students on what will be tested. Also, I may be staying back nearly everyday to attend the extra exam-preparation supplimentory lessons, and to do revision papers and clear any of my doubts with teachers.

And why am I still sneaking to use the computer? It's bad enough on any ordinary day, but now the MYEs are here and somehow there's just this urge to use the com. Computer addiction? Not really.. I use the computer only like 2 hours or so every week, all sneaking. And I'm not hooked to gaming or anything. I just like using the computer, and I guess it's because the seldom you get to use something, the more enjoyable each experience is.

Anyways, there're many things that has happened this week, and really fast. Suffering from some weird kind of mood swing.. Down one moment and suddenly so high the next, for no apparent reason. And no logical explanation behind it cos I'm a male (if you actually noticed) and males do not go through 'that time of the month'.

Anyways, I'll try my best to study and score well for the exams. Just feel really weird right now. I should better lock my footballs up too. My foot is in a seriously bad condition with blisters, calluses and cuts, and also some wounds caused by me scratching mosquito bites. Had to run 2.4km today cos I did not on Tuesday. Ran with Xiyue, and came in second again. Timing was 10mins plus.. That's actually rather slow considering I stopped to cough cos I choked (yea, I know that's dumb), but still managed to get second place in my class cos they are all noobs. One day I will beat that flower. I must.

Haha, ChengWei has to write a 2000-word reflection to Mrs B. Lim for not bring his thermometer. It was initially meant to be only (sarcasm) 1000 words long, but he did not come yesterday, and B. Lim told him to get it completed by today, or it will be increased to 2000 words long. And that's exactly what happened. Mrs Chang even called me to find out ChengWei's handphone number after school. Wonder what she told him.

Oh yea, almost forgotten. 'Xiao Pang' is called Kevin. Lol.

Oh my! I had better stop here. I have just spent 15mins of my time typing this post when I could have used it to study.

Well, wishing all the best to everyone for MYE, and do work hard cos it ain't gonna be easy (for me at least!). Good luck!

The Madman™ (210 /'05 All the way!)

The Past Week

2006-04-22T19:50:00.000+08:00

Whoa.. So fast.. Mid-year examinations are here already, better work hard. But first, a summary of my past week.

Monday: Nothing much. Finally completed all my overdued assignments. Feel much less stressed up.

Tuesday: Came in second for 2.4km run during PE. Rained. Could not go home after school. Had a talk with JT.. Haha, Sec 3s don't need to go for BB. Played football till 7pm with CheeYew.

Wednesday: Also nothing much. Blisters all over feet from running 2.4km in lousy shoes. WeiMing callled to ask me to inform my Squad 3 peeps to fill in kyaking consent form and hand it in on Thursday together with money.

Thursday: Had to climb up and down the whole school with Daisy and ChengWei to inform the Squad 3 peeps about kyaking and pass consent forms to those that don't have it. Lucky got free period, or else we would not be able to pass to Sec 1s and 2s, cos of different reccess timeslots.

Friday: Got back both Brazil and Spain footballs from Mrs Wendy Lim. Got ball to kick after school. Then proceeded to Clementi Sports Stadium for Annual Sports Meet. Stupid lor.. Last minute call me substitute Broderick.. I was already so tired from all the soccer and running.. So slacked throughout, though did not lose pacing behing WeiMing. We couldn't have won anyway. WeiCong giving some stupid 'lao mao bing' excuse for his poor performance and JinXing treating it like some big joke. JunHe and gang took the Spain ball to play near his house afterwards. Could not join them as I've got dinner at home. Caught Dylan with my +F50 ball and got it back.

Today: Went to Tanjong Pagar to play street soccer. There were two teams from Nan Hua. We played league-style, each match of eight minutes. The first team was great, in fact, BEST. They did not lose a single of their 3 matches, and Xiyue did not conceit a single goal for the opponents. My team on the other hand, was.. Not so good, being last on the charts. The only 2 goals were scored by me on the final match. -.- Did not even win a single game. But the opponents were all adults whose body masses were at least 2 times of mine. And they played rough.So Daisy decided to play rough too, pushing and banging into anyone he saw. He even injured some guy's ankle by kicking it. But at least his defending saved us from being trashed, like, 6-2? The Chua Chu Kang and Raffles Team were rather good too. Then went to eat at JP and went home. Studied for most of the day.. Sian..

Mid-Year Exams are just round the corner, so everyone must jia you!

Good luck.

Life.

2006-04-13T20:03:00.000+08:00

What is life, and what are it's purposes? Why were we created on Earth only to disappear from its surface? To change others' lives and make a difference? One day all human beings will go extinct, so does it really matter? Not trying to be cheem or anythng here, but here are just some food for thought.

According to the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, 'life' can refer to either the period of living of someone or something, one's human experiences. And then, it carries on to define 'living' as being alive now.

Life is short and unpredictable. Most readers out there are also around 15 years old this year. Has it ever occurred to you that we have probably lived one quarter of our lives already? This fifteen years has passed so quickly. How much of it can you remember? How much of it would you like to change? Would anybody remember you, say, 300 years from now?

That is why, in my earlier post on 'Priorities', I had stressed the importance of enjoying oneself. Life is indeed a short journey, and it is very important to enjoy, and live with no regrets. There is not much point in worrying about things you can't change or feeling sad for what cannot be undone.

How would you like your life to be? Would you like to die knowing that you have spent about one third your life sleeping, eating and shitting and another quarter of it in front of the computer playing some lame game about a hotel? Would you die peacefully or would you die with many regrets in life? Life is really unpredictable. You may be living one moment and dead the next. It is important not to do anything you will regret later on and be a blessing to others if possible. At the end of the day, would you want to just exist, or leave a legacy?

Make a possitive change in the world, for we are so small and insignificant in the universe. What is our lifetime compared to the lifetime of the universe? We are so tiny and insignificant that most probably, if you walk up to a stranger, he would not know who you are or even care. What will we become after we die but a pile of decomposed ashes and bones? We will be of no more use to the world and we will lose all our possesions. Therefore, we should not always be bothered by the material needs and wants around us, and instead enjoy, and bring joy to others.

So to sum up today's post, we should not worry too much and live life to the fullest. Enjoy yourself and live without regrets. Be a blessing to others around you and treasure your friends and family. Die knowing you have contributed to the world and pass on peacefully.

Enjoy; smile always.

Bye Bye Balls

2006-03-29T20:38:00.000+08:00

That does it. First seven balls confiscated in four days. That totals up to about $175. Then we were made to let the softball team use the football field (do they really need the WHOLE field?). And when our footballs flies over to the FOOTBALL field, they got confiscated.

And now, the basketball guys are using the street soccer court too. Not only are we unable to play football there on Mondays and Thursdays, but also on other days too. That's because the two newly bought and assembled basketball stands and hoops will be permanently installed there. Yes, and Mr Foo had given the go-ahead for their stupid request.

Gosh, I guess soon enough, the words 'Nan Hua Football' will be a thing of the past, and considered an oxymoron. Thanks to those morons. Future football talents like me will have no choice but be road sweepers then. Then we can kick empty beer cans all day long. I guess that's what the school wants us to do. I mean, they have just taken the most popular sport in Nan Hua away.

Anyways, f*** that. AQ's tomorrow, so gotta rest lots and be prepared. Hmm.. In case you guys don't already know what that is, it is the short form for Adventure Quest, a BB thing. Our school company will be sending two teams: the main team (that means four boys that run the full race; total of 70km ) and the relay team (split into three legs of four boys; each leg will cover 25km).
I will be in Leg #1 (NingYang, KayWee, KaiLun and me), running for 8km and cycling for 17km. Sounds fun. I think we should be able to complete this year's race with all our training.

Many of us are carrying high expectations of the main team (KeMing, ChongYee, Daniel and Justin). They had trained hard, and I must admit that they are rather fit. I'm quite worried about the Sec 2s though. They don't seem that fit and did not go for many of the training sessions held.

Well, school's quite OK.. Lots of homework, lots of homework owed, ChengWei beat WeiCong and gave him a bloody nose, played football in class and made a hell of a din when the King was just below our class, Mr Ng confiscated yet another of our balls, we were made to stay in class for recess and Mrs B Lim made us stay back for lunch to scold us, more trouble... Same ol', same ol'.

Alright, signing off here. Take care.

Slack week.

2006-03-24T16:20:00.000+08:00

This week has officially been slack week for our class 307. We had altogether 16 free periods in this week alone! XP

Mr Yeo had been chasing me for my Social Studies workbook for ages.. LOL. I still have not completed my Maths holiday homework, but that's alright so long as I finish it by Monday when Mr Liu returns.

I've just worn a big hole in the sole of my shoe, that is, my right big toe can touch the ground with my shoe on. This pair is only three weeks old. But at least that's better than my previous which I totally *censored* up in a week.

To keep you updated, I am going to inform slower people out there that we (soccer players of Nan Hua High) have decided to protest against our school's softball team and their teachers (NH Hurricanes). We have nothing against the players or anything though, so don't get me wrong.

What we're upset about is the confiscation of two balls yesterday aftenoon by the teachers-in-charge. We were playing soccer in the street soccer court even before the netball people came. They occupied the whole SOCCER FIELD (note: I used the term 'soccer field' instead of 'softball field') and what's more, they made us stop playing in the street soccer court, which I see no reason to do so. They're in the field. We're in the court.

So we went on playing, but we were careful not to kick the ball in the direction of the field as we were afraid the ball might fly over the fence and disrupt their game.

However, after a while, someone accidentally kick a ball over the fence, and it got confiscated. Followed by two other balls which had the same fate.

When we wanted to get them back, the teachers-in-charge refused to return them, even after the game. What really gets us so frustrated is this.
Their grounds for confiscating our balls (soccer balls at that):
1. We disrupted their important match.
Hey, we started playing first, who disrupted whose game??
2. We should not have kick the ball over the fence in the midst of their game.
Hey, it was an accident. Moreover, they often have their balls flying about disrupting our games too.
3. They had warned us not to disrupt their game with the ball.
Hey, we also know that, and IT WAS AN ACCIDENT. We had also ever warned them not to get their hard softballs flying in our direction.
4. That was their softball field.
Hey, that's our soccer field.
5. And after that, they did not want to return our ball.
Hey, whenever their bloody softballs fly to us, we always return them with a smile on our faces.
6. They have two teachers there and they have the authority to confiscate our balls.
Hey, so you mean we must get Mr Chee and Mr Thomas so that we can actually play soccer in peace. If we really need to get them, then fine. But we'll see whether there's more soccer balls being confiscated or softballs.
7. We can't get our balls back because it will become Nan Hua High property once it get confiscated.
Hey, four balls confiscated in two days. That equals up to, like say, S$100?? We can report them to the police you know..

The Sec 4s are starting up a petition, and I'm waiting for it.

Anyways, today's the Nan Hua High annual track meet heats. I didn't go because Mr Yeo wanted me to go there to do my Social Studies.. So I evaded that. LOL.. So here I am in the Media Hub. Keep me informed on how 3o7 did.

I think Liverpool will soon take Manchester Utd's place at the second on the charts.

Got to go, new technical assistant wanna close Hub liao. Enjoy your weekends.

Woots!~

Liverpool TRASHED Birmingham 7-0 this morning. It's Liverpool's biggest away win in the FA Cup and equal second biggest at any ground after their 8-0 home victory over Swansea in January 1990. Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard was the Man-of-the-Match, superbly creating four gouls and providing several other scoring opportunities. Peter Crouch scored two goals, a beautiful low header past Taylor and another shot to the back of the net in the 38th minute. It was a great match.

Somewhere closer to home, our class lost both interclass basketball matches by a rather big margin. Expected.. Our team kept losing possession of the ball. And Patriot was so kan cheong as the match was approaching the end that he took shot after shot from the three-point line the moment he got hold of the ball, without even waiting for the rest to move up to support him or snatch the rebound.. Went to watch a more spectacular match afterwards.

ChengWei finally repaired my iPod by reformatting it. Music's back in my life.. Yea! =D

Mr Liu's not going to be here for the week (again). Apparently he had to go off for re-reservice.. Lame.. I just realised that we see him only like 11 times a month. Here's my calculation: One month = four weeks; Four weeks minus one week for reservice = three weeks; three weeks = 21 days; 21 days minus all the weekends of the three weeks = 15; we do not have Maths on Monday, thus 15 days minus three days = 12 days; 12 days minus one day (either absent or on course) = 11.

Today would have been a super sian day cos there was no lunch but 6 periods of boring lessons after reccess. BUT Miss Loke was 20 minutes late for Biology on the first two periods. That was followed by Chemistry practical which was FUN. As in, the experiment wasn't exactly fun, but what we mixed and got was. Then we had two free periods during Maths. So what would have been a super sian day became a super slack day. LOL.

FIFA World Cup's approaching soon, who's going to emerge winner? Will Brazil clinch the trophy again? Or Germany? Personally I feel that Argentina, England and maybe Spain got quite some chance.

Well, signing off here. Take care.

The Edge - You THINK you know me.

2006-03-19T20:08:00.000+08:00

Wow.. The holidays have come to an end already.. Gosh, can't belief I haven't even started on any piece of our holiday homeworks yet. Better stop this habit of keep putting things off for later.

Camp was fun.. Despite the sucky and insufficient food (if that's what you call that Ben Hassan sh*t) and the stuffy, crammy, hot, low-ceiling, shiny-inside-surface-of-roof-to-trap-heat dormitories, I must admit it was rather fun. I mean, which camp actually has good food or humanly living conditions?

My team was a great one.. Very bonded, not bad. Haha. Trainers were all very funny, especially 'Mr Mojo' aka The Rock.. Cheers were fun and the activities were quite fun too. Some were a little challenging which really makes the camp worth while. My group was rather unlucky cos we did rafting instead of kayaking, the rope thingy instead of the log one, the solo high rope cross instead of the duo one.. AND we were always the last to have our meals. Fancy being group 12 out of group one to 12.

Sigh.. Kai was a great trainer, humorous, caring, sincere and all, unlike some trainers who only act funny. Pity he had to leave on the second night. We should have taken our group photo with him instead of Asyraf. Don't understand why we so suay.. Everyday change trainer..

Haha.. ChengWei and Priscilla is going to miss out sooo much man.. I bet all the Sec 3s will be talking bout the camp for the next few weeks at least.. I mean, there seriously isn't any good ponning the camp cos it's compulsory and if you don't go for it this year, you'll have to do it next year with the Sec 2s.

Ok, new term's here. Time to make resolutions.
1. No skipping lessons, even if the teacher for that period does.
2. Try to complete at least 80% of homework.
3. Pay attention in classes, even if it's Evonne Lim's boring lessons.
4. GET BETTER GRADES!!!
5. And most importantly, have MORE FUN!

Haha.. No more Malay language lessons! I suppose we'll be dismissed from school at 2pm now.. Hope so anyway. Timetable's gonna change again.

Well guys, signing off here. Stay cool.

March Holidays...

2006-03-13T12:53:00.000+08:00

Wow, I can't belief I finally made myself come back to blog.. Somehow don't have heart for blogging liaos..

Haha.. Hols are here but still so sian.. But should be grateful that got so little homework, cos thanks to IPP, many lessons on Friday were cancelled. Haha.. Just became Squad 3 IC.. LOL.. 94th Coy must be getting despo or something. KengThiam says he sees a positive improvement in me.. Wonder if even 10% of that is true. LOL.

BB is getting slacker.. I have to thank everyone for turning up (except ChengWei.. That ponner), though most came just to give me face.. Usually it is already a miracle that half turns up. So now KengThiam thinks that I'm a good IC for getting them to come.. LOL.

Sec 3 Adventure Camp is just around the corner.. Hope it'll be fun.. I'm very blur, so I don't quite know any details about it.

My week will be freaking empty and boring, so anyone with any plans to go out, please call me. I'll die of boredom at home.. Thinking of going out to catch a movie or LAN party..

Btw, I've decided to change the URL of this blog to: http://www.speed-of-sound.blogspot.com/ .

Priorities?

2006-03-07T20:23:00.000+08:00

My mum was just scolding my sister because she was not doing well in school and was often going out with friends. Apparently, my sister was going out so often that she skipped school to go out and was doing rather badly accedemically. My mum was like, "As a student, your top priority is to study, and not to have fun. Whatever occupation you are, you will have your priorities. And enjoyment should never be your top priority."

This really set me thinking.. Is that true?
Why do we study? To get good grades.

Why get good grades? To get to better institutions.

Why get to better institutions? To get good qualifications.

Why get good qualifications? To get a good job.

Why get a good job? So that you will ENJOY what you are doing. OR To get a high pay.

Why get high pay? To buy stuff you want and do stuff you like (aka ENJOYMENT). OR For survival and to earn enough for your wife/kids.

Why have a wife/kids? Because you LOVE them. When you love someone or is loved by someone, you ENJOY it.

I mean, who wants to die a miserable or sad man? It's good to know that you have enjoyed every moment of your life when you die.

Well, I'm not saying that my sister is doing the right thing or that we should just enjoy and neglect our studies etc. Just that, we should always reflect on why we are doing things and if we enjoy what we are doing or enjoy the outcome. And lastly, remember to have fun once in a while.

Anyways, today Mrs Chang was absent again, and Mr Liu wasn't in school either. I think they are both on course. Anyways, it was damn slack la.. ChengWei ponned school today partly because of his injured leg and also, I think, because there was an Indices test today. He should have come.. so slack, and there was no one to play soccer with but CheeYew after school. Kel and gang had badminton.

So went home earlier today after playing some basketball with Hockey gang. Everyone seems to be gearing up for inter-class basketball competition. Hope 3-06/07 team wins!

Sianz.. I think I still owe a lot of money to the class treasurer and other subject reps for English TYS, Social Studies file, Camp Tee etc. even after paying like $80++. That's daylight robbery. We're only students.. $80 is how much money I get in a month la.. Please, give us a break. Don't force us into a situation whereby we have to rob the bank.

Hmm.. I had lots in my head to blog about throughout the day, but somehow now when I'm sitting right in front of the computer, I can't recall anything I want to blog about. >.< I must be getting old.

Alright, so I'll be ending this post here. Take care.

Where does Poo' come from?

2006-03-05T14:17:00.000+08:00

Here's a lame joke.

Girl: Mummy, where does poo' come from?

Mum: Oh, honey dear, you know the delicious food we eat? Well, when we swollow our food, the food moves down to our tummy. That is where all the good stuff gets absorbed to our body. Then whatever squishy remains will be passed out into the toilet as poo.

Girl: OK, I get it now.. Then how about Tiger and Piglet, where did they come from?

Haha. By the way, I am intending to change this blog's URL cos I think that the current one it not that.. um.. nice. Well, I'll think of one and inform you guys when I change it.

Yes!! I have accomplished my target of completing the 4.8km Road Run in 23mins. I completed it in 21. Sigh.. Should have gotten top 20.. XiYue got in lor.. Never mind, ther's still next year. Meanwhile, must keep trying harder.

Mr Cheng ran damned fast la, 19mins only.. Mrs B. Lim seems rather high today. Haha, and Miss Yeo seems to be more enthu and excited about the Sec 3 adventure camp than any of us. Wonder what's up with all the school staff today.

Bound to get muscle cramp and sun burn.. 4.8km followed by soccer, and more soccer after school.. Lol.. Well, at least there's still the weekend to rest.

Enjoy your weekends!

NHHS Road Run 2006

2006-03-02T21:52:00.000+08:00

Sigh.. Stayed till 7pm to play soccer today.. My ball control (soccer ball, that is) seems to have deproved. Tired..

Tommorow's the NHHS Road Run 2006. We'll be meeting at West Coast Park (haha.. same address as my home) to take attendence, then followed by the run. For others, Big Walk. To complete it within 30mins is an easily achievable target (unless you're H**** or you get injured half-way through), and I've completed it in 27mins before. So I'm aiming for around 23mins this time round. That's not exactly fast and it may not make a big difference to readers out there, especially for seasoned runners, but it will be quite and accomplishment for me. I'm intending to take it slow (hopefully not too slow) and steady.

After that, it will be a day of fun-filled activities about leading a healthy lifestyle! ..Who am I kidding? After the run, it will be sian, sian, sian throughout till school ends. Of course, this is still better than having to stone throughout lessons the whole day. No books required tommorow.

Anyways, I have gotten back all my Common Tests results already.. I have failed two subjects. TWO. That's real bad, I am really disappointed. I hope to do better the next time round. Much better. For readers out there, I hope that you guys have done well and are satisfied. If not, don't kill yourself, though I know that that urge is overwhelmingly strong.

So here are my Common Tests results:
English : 12/30
Chinese : 27/50
E Maths : 33/50
A Maths : 20/40
Phisics : 35.5/50
Biology : 31/50
Chemistry : 23/50
Geography : 7.5/15
Social Studies: 10/10

BB seems to be getting along well, with KengThiam suddenly trying to treat us better and stuff. I'm in the FCBC cup team, by the way. JT put me in without even putting me through the test trial.

OK, so wishing all good luck and stay cool

Gosh, feeling muscle fatigue right now.. Had been staying back after school to play soccer for 3 weeks already.. And my one-day-old shoe already has two holes in it.. Lol..

Today, we got back (in order) our Social Studies, Chinese, Physics and Chemistry Common Test papers. The result are as follows:
Social Studies: 10/10 (Stunned.. This means that I just have to pass Geography to get an A1 for Combined Humanities.. Lol.)
Chinese : 27/50 (That's bad.. But then again, we all know what kind of teacher Mr Kam is, and even Daniel failed..)
Physics : 35.5/50 (It's OK.. YewHung pro la.. Got highest in class; 39.5/50.)
Chemistry : 22.5/50 (Expected.. Though I must say that I am sad about that.. And my parents are gonna KILL me if they find out.)

I think we are going to get our A Maths paper back tommorow, and I think I might fail.

Sigh.. There's BB tommorow and I haven't polished any of my uniform parts yet. Wondering if I should go.. Cos many aren't. But I don't think they have the guts to quit like they plan to.

Well, not in the mood to carry on typing nonsense, so signing off here.

Post-Common Test Post

2006-02-24T22:36:00.000+08:00

Yes! Common Tests are finally over (not that there's anything in particular for me to look forward to)!

Overall, I thought that the Common Tests were rather challenging and difficult to score even after much preparation and revision. I think the jump in workload and difficulty of syllables from last year is rather tremendous. I felt that the Physics paper today was rather easy (except for the question about air being sucked out of a vessel with water), though I am not expecting to score anywhere near my class test's result of 17/20.

Got back our E Maths papers today. I got 33/50 which is not exactly good (a far cry from Daniel, who got 43/50), but I'm not complaining, considering that I had expected to fail. HouPang is gay (yes, being a little jealous here). He scored the highest for both A and E Maths, scoring 47/50 and 39/40 respectively.

Sian.. Common Tests are over but there still seems nothing much to do. With the overwhelming amount of overdue assignments to complete and filing to do, coupled with tuition and piano lessons, and CCA, there really isn't much time to do anything if I wanted anyway. Secondary Three life sure is a lot more stressful, with so many things going on and so much to squeeze into my very human brain. Homework.. Class Tests.. Common Tests.. Certain irritating people.. Bastard teachers.. CCA.. Damned BB officers.. Sigh.

Time seems to be flying faster than usual this year. The Chinese New Year came and went, followed by class tests, and the Common Tests, and now, the next thing I know, the March holidays are approahing.

So many things seems to be happening that I am not aware of. I think I'm supposed to log on to Edulearn to take the Malay Language test, and I just heard from WeiTing this afternoon that our Cross-country Run will be on next Friday.

Oh yea, and I just visited our 2-10 class blog. They seem to be planning for a chalet party come this June holidays, just like the one held last December. I hope they do, though I wish they can find a way to lower the price for us to pay. And no more bowling for me. It costs so freaking much just to play one game and rent the shoes, and three quarters of the time you are watching others and waiting for your turn to come. And when it finally comes, you throw a heavy ball and *poof!* there goes your turn. This can be an especially unpleasant experience for those who, like me, often land their bowling balls in the gutters.

Now that the Common Tests are over, I hope Kel gets us a new ball by Monday (especially since we've got PE) and hopefully (fingers crossed), this one will have a longer life.

And here's a treat for soccer fanatics out there. Watch this video, which features Ronaldinho vs Zidane skill-wise. Its cool. No downloading required, though the buffering may take a while.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-599012856760622842
I disagree with the verdict though. Ronaldinho is legendary. He's God-like with the soccer ball.

Guess I'll have to go down to the Apple Centre sometime soon to get my iPod fixed now that the Common Tests are over.

And those who haven't yet, please contribute to my Johari Window.

Well, good luck and stay cool to all

Common Tests week.

2006-02-21T21:27:00.000+08:00

Hi. I am glad to annonce that I am sure that I have managed to fail Chemistry paper today by at least 9/50 (cos Miss Lim gave us the answers for the MCQ). It is already quite an accomplishment for me, as I had expected to get something like 2/50. I had spent the whole of yesterday trying to memorise the valency sheet and other Chemistry stuff and this is the result. I should have practised Maths instead, as I am sure that though I had not studied for Social Studies, I have done pretty well and I would not have done better if I were to study anyway.

I thought I wrote pretty well (by my standards) for Chinese yesterday, though I did not have a dictionary and left about six to seven words blank. English was rather difficult though, hopefully a B3?

Anyways, no point crying over spilt milk, and I guess I should go on with revising my work.

Well, wish everyone good luck for their Common Tests, and remember: Luck is when preparation meets opportunity. So don't just rely on luck and spend less time reading this useless post. Better go prepare.

Sick iPod..

2006-02-19T14:22:00.000+08:00

Somebody please help me.. Living without it is so miserable (or at least the thought that I spent $548 on it and it is now spoilt is). I have not been listening to it for a month now already.

I lent my iPod to ChengWei early in January to upload songs from my iPod to his computer. However, after he returned it, I was unable to add or remove songs from my playlist, only photos. So I decided to delete everything from it, and put all the songs (including new ones) back in. Problem is, when I deleted everything, the disply on iTunes on my computer is that there were no songs in it anymore and that only 86.5MB (that means photos only) was used. However, after I disconnected it, the track info were still there, including the title, artist, album, track time etc. But when I tried to play it, there was no song, it kept skipping on to the next song which also just skipped to the next.

Then when I next tried to update it again and synchronize all the songs to the updated library, iTunes showed that it was updating and the memory used became 2.4GB. However, when I disconnected it, the same old info of the old songs were displayed but, same as before, was unable to play.

Somebody please help me. I've tried everything from deleting all the songs on it through iTunes, to opening the hidden music folder and deleting everything, to reseting my iPod, to updating and reinstalling my iTunes, but nothing worked.

I know, that my iPod should be the least of my priorities now with the Common Tests next week and all, but it really is rather unbearable a fact that I can only use my iPod to view photos. Of course, I will concentrate on studying first and only send it to the Apple Centre after the Common Tests if nobody can help me.

By the way, anyone with a spare Chinese dictionary please let me know and bring it to school tommorow, cos I lost mine >.<

Well, good luck to all for tommorow's papers and all the best for the ones to follow.

Gosh.

2006-02-17T21:50:00.000+08:00

Haha.. Kel just bought a new blue F50+ ball with the money everyone chipped in.

And I just burst it.

How would I know it would be like that? We were playing soccer after school when it started raining. Everyone went back into the canteen, and I stayed a while more to kick the ball a few more times. Apparently, I kicked the ball too hardly against the fence and the rubber underneath the padding burst. Now it cannot be pumped back to shape.

Wonder why all our soccer balls have such short lifespan. It either gets a) lost; b) confiscated by Mrs B. Lim; c) confiscated by Mr E. Ng; or d) spoilt. That's so fucked up.

Anyway, now they want me to pay to get another ball, cos they stupidly threw away the receipt for the ball and cannot claim the two-years shape and stitching guarantee. Guess we'll have to rely on Daisy's willingness to bring his ball to kick soccer on Monday.

Well, seeing everyone getting geared up for the Common Tests, I think I had better start (yes, I have not even started) preparing for it too. Hopefully, just hopefully, I might pass all the subjects (including Chemistry and Maths). Everybody must jia you and get good grades (but don't stress yourself up too much)!

Wishing everyone good luck,

Lol. We (Squad 3) met Officer Junhao after school today. Glad that we can speak what we think and not get into trouble. Hmm.. We got rather frank and even said that KengThiam sucks and BB sucks. Daisy even used the F-word 10+ times on JT and Houxu, and BB. Daisy went mad with rage and started banging on the table, shouting at the top of his voice. Even people queueing up at the canteen could hear him. Then we critisized the timeslot and parade activities among other stuff about BB.

Wonder how the next parade will be like. I'm going to turn up, that's for sure. Will the fucked up officers treat us better all of a sudden? Or will they hate us and pick on us more?

Played soccer after that till 7.20pm.

Next week's Common Test week, not that there's not enough stuff in my head already. I'm sure I'll fail badly for Chemistry and Maths (the result of Mr Liu going on reservist and I skipping all the classes, coupled with the fact that I don't do my homework). Sigh, I guess I'll have to mug like mad over the weekend.

Well, good luck to all,

Ohm.

2006-02-15T08:08:00.000+08:00

Phew.. Just came back from playing soccer (in the rain). Wet, smelly, exhausted.

Today, our most beloved Chinese teacher, Mr Kam YC taught us something very important; a few simple steps to finish our homework, gain knowledge and score eight A1s in our GCE 'O'-Levels.
Step 1: Go out to the wilderness and immerse yourself in nature.
Step 2: Xi Qu Da Di Jing Hua
Step 3: 'Ohm!'

It's as easy as 1-2-3! Go home and try it out; it might just work! Yes, he was being sarcatic as usual.. Somehow he hates our class more than others he teaches. According to Kel, Ziting and CheeYew, he does not tend to kaopeh around. And they owe quite a lot to me for passing their Chinese tests too, I told them what questions would come out. I failed mine on the other hand.

Haha, got to meet Officer Junhao tommorow after school as he wants to talk to our Squad 3 about our problems with skipping BB and our unhappiness about KengThiam (*pooi!* that faggot!).

Dang still got lots of unfinished homework to start on.

Valentine's Day

2006-02-14T20:45:00.000+08:00

Valentine's Day, no gifts or chocolate given, nothing in return (even if I gave anything, who would expect a girl to give a boy a gift?). Some students went mad, while others were depressed. Even the teachers were kinda affectrd. Some were in a horrible mood (guess the reason yourself) while others seemed rather high.

Once again, we are left with no balls (soccer balls at that) to kick. WeiCong said that he put the ball in the toilet before going home yesterady and, as expected, it 'mysteriously vanished' today. So we could not play soccer and I played basketball during reccess lunch instead.

Miss Koh made us stay back for 2 hours after school today, to do filing, and to go through some English comprehension because she was slacking and gave us 2 periods to sleep earlier during her lesson. As expected, many did not turn up.

We were able to play with the lower secs after school, though not many people were there to kick with us (what would one expect on Valentine's Day?). YewHung broke his arm again.. Apparantly, his bone was still rather weak when he took the Sec 1's shot. The ball was kept and we played basketball instead. We had the whole court all to ourselves.

Dropped by CheeYew's blog and contributed to his Johari's Window. Made one myself too, contribute to it by clicking here.

Muscles aching.. Ran during PE and played soccer till 6pm after school. Manage to clock 6.05 min for 1.6km run. Daisy clocked 5.32min. He's the fastest in my class though many cheated. Aiming for 5.40min the next time..

2006-02-12T01:01:00.000+08:00

Wow.. Watched I Not Stupid Too today (or should I say yesterday, since it's now 1.09am Sunday already).. Felt the urge to, so I just left my house and went to Clememti to catch the 4.15pm show.

It must be the most touching show I've ever seen. The film encourages us to praise others and try not to just see their weak points. So I'm going to start by praising the film. Despite negative reviews on it in newspapers, I will have to beg to differ. This must be Jack Neo's best film yet. I'm not going to start telling you what happened in the movie, because I don't wish to be a spoiler for those readers who have not catch it yet. All I can say is this:

Catch it. It's good.
Compared to the previous movie, I Not Stupid (2002), it's twice as funny, the story is trice as good and four times as original, the theme song is cooler (lol), the cast is five times better and the acting six. The leading guys are seven times cooler, their roles eight times more rebellious and I can relate to the movie nine times better. And it is ten times more touching (I had to force myself to keep my tears in throughout the movie). It has some nice fighting scenes too.

To sum it all up, it is 100 times better.

Somehow I find that I can relate to the roles that Shawn Lee played in both films best.
In the first, he plays an EM3 boy, Kok Pin, who loves to draw and often gets scolded by parents and teachers alike.
In the second, he plays a 15-year-old boy (yes, I know most readers are 15 this year too), Tom (whose brother os Jerry), who has a good house and all but is neglected of his parent's time and attention, and may be rather unreasonable at times. However, he still knows that his parents love him. Soon, he finds his home just somewhere to sleep over the night.

Feel like watching it a second time..

Gosh, I didn't realise that there's still so much (yes, much, not many) homework left to do, and there's still class tests this coming week and the Common Tests the following. There is no major exams like the Sec 2 streamings and GCE O-Levels, but somehow Sec 3 life's a lot more stressful.

Damn, I don't think I will be able to even complete my overdue assignments. In fact, I'm praying that I can even pass my Common Tests.

Got lots of things on my mind.. BB.. Homework.. Common Test.. Sigh, stress.

Gosh, it's 2am already. Signing off,

Raining.. Again...

2006-02-10T18:28:00.000+08:00

Yo people.. Rained again today.. Always feel moody on wet days. Well, at least there is something we all can look forward to: The weekends (though there is still plenty of homework, the weekends still means more time to complete them).

Nothing much happened today.. Got lots of unfinished homework to do over the weekend so I'm going to keep this short.

Mr Ng wanted to meet the whole of Squad 3 for not attending BB yesteray. This is the second week of 'mass pon'. He made us pump 40. And because Vidya did not release Jing Xuan punctually, we had to go find him and by the time we met Mr Ng it was already 10.20.

So we did not have reccess, and Cheng Wei, Xi Yue, Zheng Yao, Patriot, Chong Yee and I decided to meet Mr Ng during lunch to tell him that we wanted to quit BB. Suprisingly, Bowen (yes, Bowen, you did not read it wrongly) as the only one in Squad 3 that did not want to quit BB. I can just imagine how it will be like in future when Squad 3 equals to Bowen. He will be reporting to Ke Ming, "Squad strength: 1. Current strength: 1."

After reccess was Social Studies with Mr Yeo, who we also tried to convince to quit BB and join back NCC. Then it was Double Maths. Mr Liu is still serving reservist so he will not be back till Monday. WeiCong, YewHung and I went down for the usual "3-07 Big Walk". I had let XiYue get hold of my handphone and that dumb ass must have tried to be funny. So I apologise for whoever that faggot of a flower had harrassed.

Hmm.. Play soccer after school in the rain till 6.00pm. Tiring sia. The new ball is not bad though.. But I think it's a fake. Still, good enough by my standards.

Wishing all an enjoyable weekend, cos I know I will not have one.

Yea man.. In media hub again.. Now is supposed to be double period Maths but Mr Liu go reservist so got free period. The previous period relief teacher did not even notice our absence.
Mr Chiu rocks man. He doen't even care if we pon lessons.

Gonna pon BB later.. So damn sian.. I wanted to go at first and even brought my full uniform, but I misplaced my boots and forgot to bring my cap, so might as well don't attend. If I attend, Keng Thiam will pump me and kao peh me for sure. Then I will need to take a defaulter's. But if i don't even go, I will still need to take a defaulter's, but without all the pumping and shit. Keng Thiam SUCKS. BB SUCKS.

Gonna put my uniform and all the uniform parts in my locker so it will be more convenient the next time there is BB.

JT might get a cardiac arrest if he finds out that the entire squad three wants to quit BB.

Just visited the new class blog.. It was nice, better than the previous. Nice pics.

All the tests for this week are over for our class. The rest are next week. Then the following week will be Common Tests already. Somehow time seems to fly exceptionally fast this year.

Heard some funny rumours spreading.. Cannot be bothered.

Signing off here (Daisy just SMSed that another relief teacher is taking our class now.),
